A flaw was found in HAPI FHIR, a Java implementation of the HL7 FHIR standard. The fix for a previous vulnerability CVE-2026-45367 was incomplete in the DSTU2 module. Specifically, the FHIRPathEngine.matches function in org.hl7.fhir.dstu2 did not include protection against regular expression...

CVE-2026-49485: Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity

HAPI FHIR is a complete implementation of the HL7 FHIR standard for healthcare interoperability in Java. Prior to 6.9.9 and 6.9.4.2, all implementations of FHIRPathEngine accept arbitrary FHIRPath expressions and evaluate them without input validation, and the FHIRPath functions matches,...

CVE-2026-45367: Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity

HAPI FHIR is a complete implementation of the HL7 FHIR standard for healthcare interoperability in Java. Prior to 6.9.7, the FHIRPathEngine implementation passes user-controlled regular expressions from matches, matchesFull, and replaceMatches to Java regex operations without effective timeouts,...

PT-2026-56841

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions HAPI FHIR versions prior to 6.9.9 HAPI FHIR versions prior to 6.9.4.2 Description Implementations of FHIRPathEngine evaluate arbitrary FHIRPath expressions without proper input validation. The functions matches, matchesFull, and replaceMatches...

CVE-2026-55470 HAPI FHIR: DSTU2 FHIRPathEngine.matches() missing RegexTimeout protection allows ReDoS

HAPI FHIR is a complete implementation of the HL7 FHIR standard for healthcare interoperability in Java. Prior to 6.9.10, the fix for CVE-2026-45367 incompletely patched the DSTU2 module, leaving FHIRPathEngine.matches in org.hl7.fhir.dstu2/utils/FHIRPathEngine.java to call raw String.matchessw...

CVE-2026-55470

CVE-2026-55470 affects the DSTU2 module of HAPI FHIR (org.hl7.fhir.dstu2) where FHIRPathEngine.matches() still uses raw String.matches(sw) with no RegexTimeout, enabling unauthenticated attackers to trigger catastrophic regex backtracking and exhaust CPU. The issue is resolved by upgrading to 6.9...

HAPI FHIR: Incomplete fix for CVE-2026-45367: DSTU2 FHIRPathEngine.matches() missing RegexTimeout protection allows ReDoS

Summary The fix for CVE-2026-45367 added RegexTimeout protection to the matches function in DSTU2016MAY, DSTU3, R4, R4B, and R5, but the DSTU2 module was incompletely patched. In org.hl7.fhir.dstu2, replaceMatches was updated while matches at line 2462 still calls the raw String.matchessw without...
