Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Versions of the A2A Java SDK parent package before 1.3.0.Final are affected. A malicious or compromised agent can supply an AgentCard that makes the client send its API key under a custom header name, and an HTTP redirect from that agent can then forward the header to a third-party server, leaking the credential. Upgrade to 1.3.0.Final or later. The source gives few details on other workarounds.
