CVE-2026-86144

In xinclude in libxml2 before 2.15.4, xmlXIncludeProcess and xmlXIncludeProcessTree do not propagate parseFlags. This has security relevance for, for example, the XML_PARSE_NONET flag, if (without it) a custom resource loader accesses the internet and triggers XML external entity injection, SSRF, or a denial of service (e.g., for an attacker-controlled internet resource that is intentionally slow).

CVE-2026-86144 is fixed in 11 products on 1 platform, first by RHSA-2026:89759, released August 28, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: High.
