Rapphil

**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** OpenTelemetry Java Instrumentation versions prior to 1.28.0 **Description** The issue is related to the instrumentation of Java applications using the AWS SDK v2 with Amazon Simple Email Service (SES) v1 API. When SES POST requests are instrumented, the query parameters of the request are inserted into the trace `url.path` field, leading to the HTTP body containing the email subject and message being present in the trace request URL metadata. This exposes the email content to unintended audiences. **Recommendations** For OpenTelemetry Java Instrumentation versions prior to 1.28.0, update to version 1.28.0 or later to mitigate the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the instrumentation of AWS SDK v2 calls to SES's v1 SendEmail API until the update is applied.
