{"id":"CVE-2026-15746","state":"PUBLISHED","title":"Credential disclosure in Strands Agents Tools elasticsearch_memory tool","description":"Strands Agents is an open-source Python SDK for building and running AI agents. The strands-agents-tools package provides pre-built tools for use with the SDK, including the elasticsearch_memory tool for agent memory storage. We identified CVE-2026-15746, a server-side request forgery (SSRF) issue in the elasticsearch_memory tool. The tool exposed its connection parameters (es_url, cloud_id, api_key) as fields the large language model (LLM) could control through the tool schema. When a caller omitted the api_key parameter, the tool fell back to the operator's ELASTICSEARCH_API_KEY environment variable and sent it to whichever host the LLM specified. A crafted prompt could cause the tool to connect to a threat-actor-controlled server and disclose the operator's Elasticsearch API key in the Authorization header.\n\n\n\nWe recommend you upgrade to strands-agents-tools version 0.7.0 or later. As a precautionary measure, we recommend all operators rotate their ELASTICSEARCH_API_KEY, even if there is no indication the credential was exposed.","publishedAt":"2026-07-15T18:35:47.382Z","updatedAt":"2026-07-15T18:54:31.562Z","severity":{"score":6.9,"label":"Medium","version":"4.0","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","source":"AMZN"},"assigner":"AMZN","products":["Amazon strands-agents-tools"],"affected":[{"vendor":"Amazon","product":"strands-agents-tools","defaultStatus":"unaffected","versions":[{"version":"0","status":"affected","lessThan":"0.7.0","versionType":"custom"}]}],"references":["https://pypi.org/project/strands-agents-tools/0.7.0/","https://aws.amazon.com/security/security-bulletins/2026-056-aws/","https://github.com/strands-agents/tools/security/advisories/GHSA-ppcf-fpr3-x46v"],"weaknesses":["CWE-918"],"ingestedAt":"2026-10-29T20:11:00.674Z","source":{"repository":"CVEProject/cvelistV5","path":"cves/2026/15xxx/CVE-2026-15746.json","commit":"556c9d3a8cd17e218bb8e452ba7cd619a384ff47"},"raw":{"dataType":"CVE_RECORD","dataVersion":"5.2","cveMetadata":{"cveId":"CVE-2026-15746","state":"PUBLISHED","datePublished":"2026-07-15T18:35:47.382Z","dateUpdated":"2026-07-15T18:54:31.562Z","assignerShortName":"AMZN","assignerOrgId":"ff89ba41-3aa1-4d27-914a-91399e9639e5","dateReserved":"2026-07-14T14:55:13.322Z"},"containers":{"cna":{"title":"Credential disclosure in Strands Agents Tools elasticsearch_memory tool","descriptions":[{"lang":"en","value":"Strands Agents is an open-source Python SDK for building and running AI agents.
