CVE-2026-41007 Details
Description
Spring HATEOAS maintains an unbounded static cache of StringLinkRelation instances keyed on attacker-supplied strings. Affected versions: Spring HATEOAS 1.5.0 through 1.5.6; 2.3.0 through 2.3.4; 2.4.0 through 2.4.1; 2.5.0 through 2.5.2; 3.0.0 through 3.0.3.
A heap exhaustion vulnerability has been identified in Spring HATEOAS versions 1.5.0 through 1.5.6, 2.3.0 through 2.3.4, 2.4.0 through 2.4.1, 2.5.0 through 2.5.2, and 3.0.0 through 3.0.3. This vulnerability arises from an unbounded static cache that stores StringLinkRelation instances, indexed by attacker-supplied strings. The issue affects applications that deserialize hypermedia from untrusted sources, such as through a @RequestBody linked to RepresentationModel, EntityModel, or CollectionModel, or by processing client-supplied Link headers.
Users should upgrade to Spring HATEOAS versions 1.5.7, 2.3.5, 2.4.2, 2.5.3, or 3.0.4, depending on their current version. Versions 1.5.7, 2.3.5, and 2.4.2 are available through Enterprise Support, while 2.5.3 and 3.0.4 are available as open-source.
