In December 2025, the Apache Project announced a vulnerability in Apache Tika (CVE-2025-66516) and provided patches to resolve the issue. Qlik has been reviewing our usage of the Apache Tika product suite and has identified a limited impact as follows.

 

Affected Software 

Apache Tika is used in several Qlik products. However, the vulnerability is only relevant to the case of a Talend Studio route that uses Apache Tika to parse PDFs.

No other use case or product is impacted by the vulnerability. Qlik Cloud and Talend Cloud are not impacted by this vulnerability.

Nevertheless, we are patching all our products that contain Apache Tika out of an abundance of caution. Be on the lookout for a series of product patches for supported and affected versions.

 

Recommendation 

The releases listed in the table below contain the updated version of Apache Tika, which addresses CVE-2025-66516.

Always update to the latest version. Before you upgrade, check if a more recent release is available.
