CVE-2026-41710: Spring Framework Denial of Service Vulnerability
MODERATECVE-2026-41710 is a MODERATE (CVSS 5.9) denial of service vulnerability (CWE-770: Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling) affecting Spring Framework libraries in the Maven ecosystem. The issue involves spring retry has cache exhaustion in stateful retries that leads to denial of service. Remediation is available by upgrading affected packages to version 2.0.13.

Security Impact
CVSS: 5.9
The security impact metrics below are parsed directly from the CVSS v3.1 vector string (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H).
How to Fix CVE-2026-41710
To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Spring Framework dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.retry</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-retry</artifactId>
<version>2.0.13</version>
</dependency><dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.retry</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-retry</artifactId>
<version>Latest secure release</version>
</dependency>Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:
mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.springframework.retryHow to Check if You Are Affected
To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2026-41710, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:
mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.springframework.retryAnalyze the terminal output to locate any version of Spring Framework in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 2.0.13), your application is affected.
Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.springframework.retry command inspects the resolved dependency graph declared in your project's POM files; it does not perform automated security scanning or inspect runtime dynamic classpaths. Always verify runtime container classpaths and shaded JARs.
Technical Details
Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis
This vulnerability is classified under CWE-770: Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling, where the product allocates a reusable resource or group of resources on behalf of an actor without imposing any intended restrictions on the size or number of resources that can be allocated. In Spring Framework, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.
