UBUNTU-CVE-2026-57221
RabbitMQ versions prior to 3.13.15, 4.0.20, 4.1.11, and 4.2.6 do not perform authorization checks on passive queue.declare and exchange.declare AMQP 0-9-1 operations. This allows any authenticated user connected to a virtual host to enumerate queue and exchange names and read queue message and consumer counts. The issue is fixed in the specified versions.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
RabbitMQ messaging broker versions before 3.13.15, 4.0.20, 4.1.11, and 4.2.6 lack authorization checks on passive queue.declare and exchange.declare AMQP 0-9-1 operations. This vulnerability permits any authenticated user with access to a virtual host to enumerate queue and exchange names and obtain message and consumer counts from queues. The vulnerability is addressed by implementing proper authorization checks in the fixed versions.
Potential Impact
Authenticated users who can connect to a RabbitMQ virtual host can enumerate internal queue and exchange names and read message and consumer counts without proper authorization. This information disclosure could aid attackers in reconnaissance but does not directly allow message manipulation or denial of service.
Mitigation Recommendations
Upgrade RabbitMQ to version 3.13.15, 4.0.20, 4.1.11, or 4.2.6 or later, where the authorization checks on passive queue.declare and exchange.declare operations are properly enforced. No other mitigation is indicated by the vendor advisory.
