CVE-2026-40967 Details
Description
In Spring AI, various FilterExpressionConverter implementations accept a filter expression object and translate them to specific vector store query languages. In several cases, keys and values are not properly escaped, leading to the ability to alter the query. 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)
A vulnerability exists in Spring AI versions 1.0.0 through 1.0.5 and 1.1.0 through 1.1.4, where certain FilterExpressionConverter implementations fail to properly escape keys and values in filter expressions. This oversight allows for the manipulation of queries directed towards specific vector store query languages. The vulnerability affects applications that utilize VectorStore implementations and incorporate user-supplied input as a filter expression.
Users should upgrade to Spring AI version 1.0.6 or 1.1.5, depending on their current version.
