Summary

CVE-2026-22744 is a high-severity Injection (CWE-74) vulnerability in Vmware Spring Ai. Its CVSS base score is 7.5 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 17th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

This vulnerability is AI-related — categorised as NLP and Transformers; in the Data-Related Vulnerabilities risk domain.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

CVE-2026-22744 is a vulnerability in the RedisFilterExpressionConverter component of spring-ai-redis-store, part of the Spring AI project. It occurs when a user-controlled string is passed as a filter value for a TAG field, as the stringValue() method inserts the value directly into the @field:{VALUE} RediSearch TAG block without escaping special characters. This flaw affects Spring AI versions from 1.0.0 before 1.0.5 and from 1.1.0 before 1.1.4. The issue has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N), indicating high confidentiality impact with no requirements for privileges or user interaction.

Remote, unauthenticated attackers can exploit this vulnerability by supplying a malicious filter value for a TAG field in Redis queries processed through the affected component. Successful exploitation allows attackers to manipulate RediSearch TAG blocks, potentially leading to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information stored in the Redis database.

The Spring security advisory at https://spring.io/security/cve-2026-22744 recommends upgrading to Spring AI version 1.0.5 or later for the 1.0.x branch, or 1.1.4 or later for the 1.1.x branch, where the input is properly escaped to prevent injection. No workarounds are specified in the available information.
