Description

CVE-2026-67234 is an improper input validation vulnerability in rabbitmq-server versions 4.2.0 through 4.2.7 and 4.3.0 through 4.3.1. The issue arises from the use of term_to_binary/1 on certain atoms to clear cookies, resulting in non-ASCII cookie names that violate RFC 6265. This can cause browsers to fail to delete authentication-mechanism preference cookies, leading to stale preferences persisting across logout and login cycles. The vulnerability does not allow code execution or data exfiltration. It is fixed in versions 4.2.8 and 4.3.2.
