CVE-2026-107294: Pydantic AI: Unbounded memory use when downloading remote content via web_fetch or FileUrl
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 26/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.43% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: pydantic-ai (PyPI) 1.107.2, 2.24.0; pydantic-ai-slim (PyPI) 1.107.2, 2.24.0.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to pydantic-ai (PyPI) 1.107.2, 2.24.0; pydantic-ai-slim (PyPI) 1.107.2, 2.24.0 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
Pydantic AI is a Python agent framework for building applications and workflows with Generative AI. From 1.77.0 until 1.107.2 and 2.24.0, web_fetch_tool, the WebFetch local fallback, and remote FileUrl media downloads buffer the complete HTTP response body before enforcing content-size controls. An attacker-influenced URL can stream an arbitrarily large response that exhausts process memory and crashes the worker; affected media types include ImageUrl, DocumentUrl, VideoUrl, and AudioUrl. SSRF protections remain effective, and the impact is limited to availability. This issue is fixed in versions 1.107.2 and 2.24.0.
