Answer in brief
CVE-2026-73235 records a Unknown severity vulnerability in FreeCAD: XXE file read and SSRF via external entity injection in Document.xml SAX parser. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. The current feed maps FreeCAD/FreeCAD (generic). Check affected ranges and fixed versions before updating.
Analysis pending evidence review
HOL Guard separates source facts from reviewed analysis. See the methodology.
A CVSS score is not reported in the current record. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. Treat this as a source-backed prioritization signal, not a statement about your environment.

FreeCAD is a free and open-source multiplatform 3D parametric modeler. Prior to 1.1.2, the Xerces SAX2 XMLReader constructed in src/Base/Reader.cpp by Base::XMLReader::XMLReader() parses attacker-controlled Document.xml from a crafted .FCStd archive without disabling default external entity resolution or external DTD loading. When Document::restore() opens the document, external entities can read local files through the file URI scheme or initiate server-side requests through the http URI scheme, and resolved content can flow through the characters() callback. This issue is fixed in version 1.1.2.
