Spring Boot's Mail auto-configuration does not enable hostname verification. Applications that set the relevant JavaMail property, such as spring.mail.properties.mail.smtp.ssl.checkserveridentity=true, are not affected.
Affected versions: Spring Boot 4.0.0 through 4.0.6; 3.5.0 through 3.5.14; 3.4.0 through 3.4.16.
Spring Data REST's Querydsl integration accepts arbitrary persistent property paths as request-parameter filter keys and does not consider Jackson customizations before handing them to Querydsl.
Affected versions: Spring Data REST 3.7.0 through 3.7.19; 4.3.0 through 4.3.16; 4.4.0 through 4.4.14; 4.5.0 through 4.5.11; 5.0.0 through 5.0.5.
Spring Data REST serializes the full exception cause chain into HTTP error response bodies, potentially exposing persistence-layer internals to HTTP clients.
Affected versions: Spring Data REST 3.7.0 through 3.7.19; 4.3.0 through 4.3.16; 4.4.0 through 4.4.14; 4.5.0 through 4.5.11; 5.0.0 through 5.0.5.
Spring Kafka's retry topic infrastructure did not sufficiently validate user-controlled header values before acting on them. A producer could send a record with a crafted retrytopic-attempts header to supply an out-of-range attempt count and cause the retry topic router to misidentify where the message was in the retry sequence.
Affected versions: Spring for Apache Kafka 4.0.0 through 4.0.5; 3.3.0 through 3.3.15; 3.2.0 through 3.2.13; 2.9.0 through 2.9.13; 2.8.0 through 2.8.11.
When an application opts into DelegatingDeserializer, a producer can grow the consumer's heap without bound by sending records with unique random spring.kafka.serialization.selector header values, eventually causing GC thrash and OutOfMemoryError.
Affected versions: Spring for Apache Kafka 4.0.0 through 4.0.5; 3.3.0 through 3.3.15; 3.2.0 through 3.2.13; 2.9.0 through 2.9.13; 2.8.0 through 2.8.11.
Applications that configure their broker connection via RabbitConnectionFactoryBean.setUri("amqps://...") without also calling setUseSSL(true) get TLS encryption with no certificate validation and no hostname verification.
Affected versions: Spring AMQP 4.0.0 through 4.0.3; 3.2.0 through 3.2.10; 3.1.0 through 3.1.15; 2.4.0 through 2.4.17.
Spring Security's CookieRequestCache and CookieServerRequestCache store the pre-authentication request URL in a browser cookie so that users can be redirected back to their intended destination after a successful login. In affected versions, the full absolute URL is stored in the cookie and is used without validation as the post-login redirect target.
Affected versions: Spring Security 5.7.0 through 5.7.23; 5.8.0 through 5.8.25; 6.3.0 through 6.3.16; 6.4.0 through 6.4.16; 6.5.0 through 6.5.10; 7.0.0 through 7.0.5.
Spring Data MongoDB repository query methods annotated with @Query that use regex parameter binding perform insufficient validation of the bound parameter. An attacker can supply a crafted string to break out of the intended regular expression quoting.
Affected versions: Spring Data MongoDB 5.0.0 through 5.0.5; 4.5.0 through 4.5.11; 4.4.0 through 4.4.14; 4.3.0 through 4.3.16; 4.2.0 through 4.2.15; 4.1.0 through 4.1.14; 4.0.0 through 4.0.15; 3.4.0 through 3.4.19.
Since Spring Security SAML decrypts SAML Responses as well as elements of SAML LogoutRequests and LogoutResponses without requiring a valid signature, attackers may be able to craft these SAML payloads and use the Service Provider as a decryption oracle.
Affected versions: Spring Security 5.7.0 through 5.7.23; 5.8.0 through 5.8.25; 6.3.0 through 6.3.16; 6.4.0 through 6.4.16; 6.5.0 through 6.5.10; 7.0.0 through 7.0.5.
Spring Security Authorization Server's authorization endpoint performs insufficient validation of the requesturi parameter. An attacker can craft a malicious authorization request containing an invalid requesturi and an arbitrary, unvalidated redirecturi, which can lead to an Open Redirect vulnerability.
Affected versions: Spring Security 7.0.0 through 7.0.5. Spring Authorization Server 1.5.0 through 1.5.7.
Due to incorrect host parsing, applications that rely on UriComponentsBuilder to parse and validate an externally provided URL string may be exposed to a server-side request forgery (SSRF) attack.
Affected versions: Spring Framework 7.0.0 through 7.0.7; 6.2.0 through 6.2.18.
Spring MVC and WebFlux applications are vulnerable to Multipart request smuggling attacks.

A vulnerability in Spring Expression Language (SpEL) evaluation logic allows for arbitrary zero-argument method invocation, even within restricted or read-only contexts, which may allow an attacker to invoke unintended application logic.
Affected versions: Spring Framework 7.0.0 through 7.0.7; 6.2.0 through 6.2.18; 6.1.0 through 6.1.27; 5.3.0 through 5.3.48.
Spring WebFlux applications may be vulnerable to a security bypass when using the Kotlin Router DSL.
Affected versions: Spring Framework 5.3.0 through 5.3.48.
Spring MVC applications which accept user-supplied values in the cssClass, cssErrorClass, or cssStyle attributes of JSP form tags allow arbitrary HTML/JavaScript code injection, potentially resulting in a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability.
Affected versions: Spring Framework 7.0.0 through 7.0.7; 6.2.0 through 6.2.18; 6.1.0 through 6.1.27; 5.3.0 through 5.3.48.
A Spring MVC or Spring WebFlux application which configures a mapping for "/" where the view name is not explicitly specified allows an attacker to craft a link resulting in a 302 redirect to an arbitrary external host via the redirect: prefix.
Affected versions: Spring Framework 7.0.0 through 7.0.7; 6.2.0 through 6.2.18; 6.1.0 through 6.1.27; 5.3.0 through 5.3.48.

Spring MVC and WebFlux applications are vulnerable to Denial of Service attacks when resolving static resources.
More precisely, an application can be vulnerable when all the following are true:
the application is using Spring MVC or Spring WebFlux the application is serving static resources from the file system the application is running on a Windows platform
When all the conditions above are met, the attacker can send malicious requests that are slow to resolve and that can keep HTTP connections in use. This can cause a Denial of Service on the application.
A WebFlux server application that processes multipart requests creates temp files for parts larger than 10 K. Under some circumstances, temp files may remain not deleted after the request is fully processed. This allows an attacker to consume available disk space.
Older, unsupported versions are also affected.
The raw message of every server-side AuthenticationException is returned to the unauthenticated remote caller in the gRPC status description. This allows an attacker to obtain information about the authentication failure, which may be useful for further attacks.
Affected versions: Spring gRPC: 1.0.0 - 1.0.2 (fixed in 1.0.3). Older, unsupported versions are also affected.
In Spring AI, a malicious PDF file can be crafted that triggers the allocation of unreasonable amounts of memory when handled by ForkPDFLayoutTextStripper.
Affected versions: Spring AI: 1.0.0 - 1.0.5 (fixed in 1.0.6), 1.1.0 - 1.1.4 (fixed in 1.1.5)
In Spring AI, having access to a shared environment can expose the ONNX model used by the application.
Affected versions: Spring AI: 1.0.0 - 1.0.5 (fixed in 1.0.6), 1.1.0 - 1.1.4 (fixed in 1.1.5)
In Spring AI, an attacker can bypass conversation isolation and exfiltrate sensitive memory from other users’ chat histories, including secrets and credentials, by injecting filter logic through conversationId. Only applications that use VectorStoreChatMemoryAdvisor and pass user-supplied input as a conversationId are affected.
