CVE-2026-40966 PUBLISHED

VectorStoreChatMemoryAdvisor conversation scoping can lead to cross-tenant memory exfiltration

Assigner: vmware
Reserved: 16.04.2026 Published: 28.04.2026 Updated: 28.04.2026

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.
