This image poses a critical security risk and must not be used in production, especially as an internet-facing service. An attacker could achieve remote code execution via XXE in Apache Tika (CVE-2025-66516) or perform HTTP request smuggling through Netty (CVE-2026-42581). Disabling the PDF parsing module in Elasticsearch ingest pipelines would fully mitigate the Tika vulnerabilities, but the Netty flaws remain.
