Description
OpenTelemetry JavaScript is the OpenTelemetry JavaScript client. From 0.204.0 until 0.222.0, @opentelemetry/instrumentation-http writes the raw query string from incoming HTTP requests to the url.query server-span attribute without applying the redactedQueryParams protection used for outgoing spans. Services receiving signed URLs or other credentials in query parameters can therefore export still-valid secrets to tracing backends, where observability infrastructure and users with span-read access may read them. The redactedQueryParams option does not protect incoming spans in affected versions. This issue is fixed in version 0.222.0.
Detection & mitigation playbook
VulnerabilityDetect
Identify every host running the affected component and compare the installed build against the fixed version below — for source-built or distro-packaged software the version string, not a lockfile, is the source of truth (`dpkg -l`, `rpm -q`, or the binary's own `--version`).
Remediation status
The records we use list no fixed release for CVE-2026-128080. Check the upstream advisory for a patched version, and apply the exposure-reduction steps below in the meantime.
Mitigate without a patch
Assume what was exposed is already known: rotate any credential, token or key that the affected component could return, restrict the endpoint to callers that genuinely need it, and strip sensitive fields from responses and error output at the boundary rather than relying on the client not to read them.
