CVE-2026-55470

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-2026-45367

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,...

GHSA-7CMJ-V6X8-FRVV org.hl7.fhir.core: ReDoS via FHIRPath matches()/replaceMatches() in FHIR Validator HTTP Endpoint

Summary All implementations of FHIRPathEngine accept arbitrary FHIRPath expressions and evaluate them without input validation. The utility intended to secure this evaluation did so incorrectly, and did not fully cover all places in which evaluation was being done. An attacker can send a resource...

GHSA-FXJ4-P9XP-37V5 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...
