AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N
Local vector confirmed by log-file access model; PR:L because a standard local user account is sufficient; C:L because only proxy credentials are exposed, not broader system confidentiality.

1DescriptionCVE.org
The Spring Boot language server logs the raw value of the https_proxy/HTTPS_PROXY/http_proxy/HTTP_PROXY environment variable at INFO level whenever it creates an outbound HTTP client and no explicit http.proxy workspace setting is configured. Corporate proxy URLs frequently embed Basic-auth credentials in the form http://user:pass@proxy:8080, and the language server writes this value to its log file without any redaction. Since language server log files are often attached to bug reports or are readable by other local users/processes, this can result in disclosure of proxy credentials. Affected Spring Products and Versions: Spring Tools for Eclipse: 5.2.0 and earlier Spring Tools for VSCode / Cursor / Theia: 2.2.0 and earlier
AnalysisAI
Spring Tools language server exposes proxy Basic-auth credentials in cleartext log files, affecting Spring Tools for Eclipse 5.2.0 and earlier and Spring Tools for VSCode/Cursor/Theia 2.2.0 and earlier. When no explicit http.proxy workspace setting is configured, the language server reads the HTTP_PROXY/HTTPS_PROXY (and lowercase variants) environment variables and writes their raw values-including embedded credentials in the form http://user:pass@proxy:8080-to its log at INFO level without redaction. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Two specific conditions must both be true for credential exposure to occur: (1) the affected user must have a proxy URL with embedded Basic-auth credentials set in one of the HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY, http_proxy, or https_proxy environment variables, and (2) no explicit http.proxy setting must be configured at the IDE workspace level-because a workspace setting causes the language server to bypass the environment variable lookup entirely. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The vendor-assigned CVSS 3.1 base score of 3.3 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N) is consistent with the threat model: exploitation requires local access, low-privilege access to the log file, and the specific configuration condition where no workspace proxy setting overrides the environment variable fallback. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | A developer working on a corporate network has HTTP_PROXY set to http://jdoe:s3cr3t@proxy.corp.example.com:8080 in their environment. They open a Spring project in VS Code with no workspace proxy setting configured. … |
| Remediation | Consult the official Spring security advisory at https://spring.io/security/cve-2026-59326 for confirmed fixed versions and upgrade Spring Tools for Eclipse beyond 5.2.0 and Spring Tools for VSCode/Cursor/Theia beyond 2.2.0 as soon as vendor-released patched builds are available; exact fix versions are not independently confirmed in the data available at time of this analysis. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
