## What is CVE-2026-15643?

CVE-2026-15643 is a critical server-side request forgery vulnerability in awslabs.healthlake-mcp-server, published on 14 Jul 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

### Official description

AWS HealthLake MCP Server (awslabs.healthlake-mcp-server) is a Model Context Protocol server that enables AI assistants to interact with AWS HealthLake FHIR datastores. A server-side request forgery in the pagination handling component in AWS awslabs.healthlake-mcp-server before 0.0.14 on all platforms might allow a remote authenticated user to exfiltrate AWS temporary security credentials to an arbitrary endpoint via a crafted next_token parameter. The server does not validate that pagination URLs point back to the expected HealthLake endpoint, allowing an actor to redirect subsequent requests to an actor-controlled server.

Its recommended to upgrade to version 0.0.14 or later.

Weakness: CWE-918 (Server-Side Request Forgery)
