Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.springframework.ai

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2026-47835, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.springframework.ai

Analyze 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 1.1.8), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.springframework.ai 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-943: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Data Query Logic, where the product generates a query intended to access or manipulate data in a data store such as a database, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that can modify the intended logic of the query. 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.

Source Advisory Statement

In Spring AI Vector Stores, special characters could be used to force the execution of arbitrary queries in Elasticsearch, OpenSearch, and GemFire VectorDB. Affected components: spring-ai-elasticsearch-store, spring-ai-opensearch-store, spring-ai-gemfire-store. Affected versions: Spring AI 1.0.0 through 1.0.x (fix 1.0.9). Spring AI 1.1.0 through 1.1.x (fix 1.1.8).
