DescriptionCVE.org

Spring AI's spring-ai-neo4j-store contains a Cypher injection vulnerability in Neo4jVectorFilterExpressionConverter. When a user-controlled string is passed as a filter expression key in Neo4jVectorFilterExpressionConverter of spring-ai-neo4j-store, doKey() embeds the key into a backtick-delimited Cypher property accessor (node.metadata.) after stripping only double quotes, without escaping embedded backticks.This issue affects Spring AI: from 1.0.0 before 1.0.5, from 1.1.0 before 1.1.4.

AnalysisAI

Cypher injection in Spring AI Neo4j vector store (versions 1.0.0 through 1.0.4 and 1.1.0 through 1.1.3) allows unauthenticated remote attackers to access confidential data stored in Neo4j databases. The vulnerability exists in Neo4jVectorFilterExpressionConverter where user-controlled filter expression keys are embedded into Cypher property accessors without proper backtick escaping, enabling attackers to break out of the intended property context and execute arbitrary Cypher queries. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Spring AI versions 1.0.0-1.0.4 or 1.1.0-1.1.3 with Neo4j vector store enabled. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS v3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) indicates this is a remotely exploitable vulnerability requiring no authentication, low attack complexity, and no user interaction, resulting in high confidentiality impact without integrity or availability consequences. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker submits a malicious filter expression key containing backtick characters to a Spring AI application endpoint that processes Neo4j vector store queries. For example, a crafted key like "field`} MATCH (n) RETURN n //" causes the Neo4jVectorFilterExpressionConverter to construct a Cypher query that breaks out of the intended property accessor context and executes arbitrary graph traversal commands. …
Remediation Upgrade Spring AI to version 1.0.5 or later for the 1.0.x branch, or to version 1.1.4 or later for the 1.1.x branch as documented in the vendor advisory at https://spring.io/security/cve-2026-22743. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: Inventory all deployments of Spring AI Neo4j vector store and identify systems running versions 1.0.0-1.0.4 or 1.1.0-1.1.3. …
