Recommended action
Patch only the product branches with a verified fix

Medium technical severity with no CISA KEV confirmation; remediate through the normal risk-based patch cycle unless local exposure raises the priority. Verified remediation exists for at least one product or source, but 2 structured product or package states remain unresolved. Apply remediation only to the exact product branch confirmed by its source.

Evidence used

  • No CISA KEV confirmation is currently recorded.
  • The selected CVSS metric records a network-reachable, unauthenticated path with no user interaction.
  • EPSS is 0.34% for the current model date.

Compensating controls

  • Apply the linked authoritative mitigation while planning the permanent fix.
  • Restrict the affected network interface to trusted sources where business-safe.
  • Monitor vendor guidance and exploitation sources for a material change.

Verification

  1. Confirm that the asset runs Spring Spring Data JPA and falls inside the recorded affected range.
  2. Recheck the vendor advisory before scheduling a change because no verified fixed version is currently retained.
  3. Validate exposure, authentication requirements and compensating controls in the actual environment.
  4. Reopen this reassessment when CVSS, KEV, EPSS, exploit evidence or remediation changes.
Mitigation target: As exposure requiresRemediation target: Within 365 days

This automated reassessment organises public evidence. It does not know asset exposure, business impact or control effectiveness and does not replace CVSS or a human risk decision.

Cross-source reconciliation

Remediation availability differs by product scope

Verified remediation exists for at least one product or source, but 2 structured product or package states remain unresolved. Apply remediation only to the exact product branch confirmed by its source.

CVE-2026-47834 · CSAF 2.0 · revision 3 · finalRed Hat Product Securityorg.springframework.data/spring-data-jpa: Spring Data JPA: Data validation bypass allows limited information exposure and service disruption
2 known affected

The vendor explicitly identifies these products as affected by this CVE.

  • devspaces/openvsx-rhel9 as a component of Red Hat OpenShift Dev Spaces
  • devspaces/pluginregistry-rhel9 as a component of Red Hat OpenShift Dev Spaces
Summary
A flaw was found in Spring Data JPA. This vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass data validation mechanisms by submitting specially crafted input. This could lead to unauthorized access to limited information and minor disruptions in service availability.
Remediation
There is no mitigation available for this issue. Apply updates as they become available from Red Hat product teams. As a temporary workaround, sanitize all Sort and Pageable parameters from untrusted sources before using them with native SQL queries, or avoid exposing Sort parameters to untrusted input entirely.

01

What, why and how

Spring Data JPA's Sort validation can be bypassed when parameters containing crafted payload are accepted from untrusted sources. Spring Data JPA 4.1.0 Spring Data JPA 4.0.0 - 4.0.6 Spring Data JPA 3.5.0 - 3.5.13 Spring Data JPA 3.0.0 - 3.4.15

What

Spring Data JPA's Sort validation can be bypassed when parameters containing crafted payload are accepted from untrusted sources. Spring Data JPA 4.1.0 Spring Data JPA 4.0.0 - 4.0.6 Spring Data JPA 3.5.0 - 3.5.13 Spring Data JPA 3.0.0 - 3.4.15

Why

Attacker-controlled data is not kept separate from SQL query syntax, allowing the intended database operation to be changed.

How

An attacker operating through a network path may attempt exploitation without authentication or user interaction. If successful, the issue may cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor.

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
No confirmed evidence

No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.

Public PoC / exploit material
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
None recorded

No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.

Likely attack path
a network path → Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') → cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor
Attack surface
Network
Privileges required
None: unauthenticated exploitation is possible
User interaction
None
Attack complexity
High: exploitation depends on specific conditions
Security boundary
Unchanged: impact remains within the vulnerable component's security authority
Weakness
?CWE means Common Weakness Enumeration: a standard category for the underlying weakness.
CWE-89 ↗

CWE-89: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection'). The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.

CVSS vector
?CVSS means Common Vulnerability Scoring System. The vector records the metric values used to calculate technical severity.
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:L

Common Vulnerability Scoring System 3.1: the compact vector below is decoded into plain language.

AVNetworkAttack vector: The vulnerable component can be reached over a network.ACHighAttack complexity: Successful exploitation depends on specific conditions outside the attacker's direct control.PRNonePrivileges required: The attacker does not need an account or existing privileges.UINoneUser interaction: No action by another user is required.SUnchangedScope: The security impact remains within the vulnerable component's authority.CLowConfidentiality impact: A successful attack can cause a limited loss.INoneIntegrity impact: No direct loss is represented by this metric.ALowAvailability impact: A successful attack can cause a limited loss.

Patch and workaround

Operational remediation based on structured source evidence.

Status
?Patch availability is based on structured fixed-version fields and authoritative update references. If no fix is verified, check the vendor advisory before making a change.
Fix availability varies by product
Affected
Fixed
No fixed version is explicitly recorded in the structured CVE data.
Action
Use the product-specific evidence above. Patch only products with a verified fixed release, and keep every affected or under-investigation state without a matching fix in the remediation queue.
Workaround
There is no mitigation available for this issue. Apply updates as they become available from Red Hat product teams. As a temporary workaround, sanitize all Sort and Pageable parameters from untrusted sources before using them with native SQL queries, or avoid exposing Sort parameters to untrusted input entirely.
