CVE-2026-9133: CWE-489 Active debug code in AWS RabbitMQ AWS
CVE-2026-9133 is a high-severity vulnerability in the amazon-mq rabbitmq-aws plugin before version 0. 2. 1. It involves active debug code in the ARN resolver that accepts a debug ARN scheme allowing remote authenticated users to perform arbitrary file reads on any file accessible to the RabbitMQ process. This vulnerability affects version 0. 1. 0 and can lead to confidentiality breaches without impacting integrity or availability. AWS recommends upgrading to version 0. 2. 1 to remediate the issue and rotating private TLS certificate keys if TLS is used.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The vulnerability CVE-2026-9133 exists in the ARN resolver component of amazon-mq rabbitmq-aws versions prior to 0.2.1. A debug ARN scheme (arn:aws-debug:file) is accepted by the PUT /api/aws/arn/validate endpoint, which can be exploited by remote authenticated users to read arbitrary files accessible by the RabbitMQ process. This is due to active debug code that was not removed. The issue is resolved by upgrading to version 0.2.1. The vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.7, indicating high severity with network attack vector, low attack complexity, and requiring privileges but no user interaction. AWS manages remediation for this cloud-hosted service.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows remote authenticated users to read arbitrary files on the RabbitMQ server process, potentially exposing sensitive information. The vulnerability impacts confidentiality but does not affect integrity or availability. There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
AWS recommends upgrading to rabbitmq-aws version 0.2.1 to remediate this vulnerability. For RabbitMQ instances configured with TLS, it is also advised to rotate any associated private certificate keys. Since this is a cloud service, AWS manages remediation on their side, but customers should ensure they are running the patched version. Patch status is confirmed by the vendor advisory at https://aws.amazon.com/security/security-bulletins/2026-034-aws/.
