- Check whether you run A2A Project A2A Java SDK or org.a2aproject.sdk:a2a-java-sdk-parent (Maven) at an affected version. Junglewise does that check for you around the clock: connect your code, cloud and domains, and it matches new vulnerabilities like this one against what you actually run and tells you when one reaches you.
How to fix
- org.a2aproject.sdk:a2a-java-sdk-parent (Maven): upgrade to 1.3.0.Final or later
# set org.a2aproject.sdk:a2a-java-sdk-parent to 1.3.0.Final in your pom.xml or build.gradle
Upgrade to version 1.3.0.Final or later, which adds safe header allowlist validation to AuthInterceptor and disables automatic HTTP redirects in all HTTP clients.
Technical details
The AuthInterceptor uses the remote agent's declared header name from APIKeySecurityScheme without validating that credentials are actually configured for HEADER-based transmission, allowing header injection. The JdkA2AHttpClient's NORMAL redirect policy forwards credential-bearing headers across cross-origin redirects controlled by the agent. The attack requires the client to have configured API key credentials and the attacker to control the agent's AgentCard and redirect responses.
