MEDIUM | JUNE 09, 2026 | CVE-2026-41730
Description
Spring Data REST serializes the full exception cause chain into HTTP error response bodies, potentially exposing persistence-layer internals to HTTP clients.
Affected applications are those that expose a Spring Data REST repository backed by a relational (JDBC/JPA) store and do not apply additional error-handling configuration or a Spring Security access policy that prevents unauthenticated access to the affected endpoints.

- 3.7.0 - 3.7.19
- 4.3.0 - 4.3.16
- 4.4.0 - 4.4.14
- 4.5.0 - 4.5.11
- 5.0.0 - 5.0.5
