Description
AWS Bedrock AgentCore Python SDK is an open-source Python library that provides client tools for building AI agents on the Amazon Bedrock AgentCore platform.



Unintended logging of sensitive user content in the OpenTelemetry instrumentation in AWS Bedrock AgentCore Python SDK versions 1.4.8 and 1.5.0 might allow a local authenticated user with access to CloudWatch Logs to access raw user prompts and agent responses containing sensitive data via span attributes. The SDK wrote raw user prompts and complete agent responses into OpenTelemetry span attributes on every invocation without filtering or masking. These spans flow into the customer's aws/spans CloudWatch log group, exposing sensitive content to any principal with log read access.



We recommend you upgrade to version 1.5.1 or later. Users who ran affected versions should also review and purge sensitive content from their aws/spans CloudWatch log groups.

AI Analysis

Impact

An unintentional feature of the AWS Bedrock AgentCore Python SDK logs raw user prompts and full agent responses directly into OpenTelemetry span attributes without filtering. These attributes are exported to CloudWatch Logs, resulting in sensitive data being exposed to any party that can read the logs.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects AWS Bedrock AgentCore Python SDK versions 1.4.8 and 1.5.0. Users of these SDKs for building AI agents on the Bedrock platform are therefore at risk.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 5.7 indicates a moderate severity. The EPSS score is < 1%, suggesting the likelihood of exploitation is very low; the issue is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The principal attack vector requires local authentication and log‑read access to CloudWatch. A user with those privileges can retrieve sensitive prompts and responses from the aws/spans log group, compromising confidentiality. While the vulnerability does not allow remote code execution or privilege escalation, it permits data exfiltration for authenticated users who have the ability to read the logs.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade to version 1.5.1 or later to mitigate the CWE-532 vulnerability by preventing sensitive data from being recorded in OpenTelemetry spans
  • After the upgrade, identify and purge any aws/spans CloudWatch log entries that contain sensitive prompts or responses that were captured due to the CWE-532 issue
  • Restrict CloudWatch log read permissions to only those principals that truly require access, following least‑privilege principles to limit exposure from the CWE-532 flaw
