Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

The HAPI FHIR Core packages org.hl7.fhir.core and org.hl7.fhir.utilities, versions before 6.9.4, match configured server URLs by string prefix when sending authentication credentials. An attacker who can redirect a request to a domain whose name begins with a configured server URL (for example, a lookalike domain appended to a configured terminology server) can receive Bearer tokens, Basic auth credentials, or API keys, and can potentially bypass the HTTPS requirement. Upgrade to version 6.9.4 or later.
