{"id":"BIT-rabbitmq-2026-67229","summary":"RabbitMQ: Admin-only atom exhaustion: atomize_keys on vhost metadata","details":"RabbitMQ is a messaging and streaming broker. Prior to versions 3.13.15, 4.0.20, 4.1.11, 4.2.6, and 4.3.0, add_vhost/2 calls rabbit_data_coercion:atomize_keys/1 (the unsafe variant using binary_to_atom) on the vhost metadata map. The 20 MB management body limit fits ~1M+ short keys. Admin-only. An administrator importing a crafted definitions file can crash the node in a single request: a vhosts entry with ~1M unique metadata keys exhausts the atom table during import. Preconditions include administrator tag. This issue is fixed in versions 3.13.15, 4.0.20, 4.1.11, 4.2.6, and 4.3.0.","aliases":["CVE-2026-67229","GHSA-ggrw-qm45-hwpv"],"modified":"2026-10-01T10:11:04.004349438Z","published":"2026-10-01T09:33:21.237Z","database_specific":{"cpes":["cpe:2.3:a:vmware:rabbitmq:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*"],"severity":"Medium"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/releases/tag/v4.2.6"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/releases/tag/v4.3.0"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/security/advisories/GHSA-ggrw-qm45-hwpv"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-67229"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"rabbitmq","ecosystem":"Bitnami","purl":"pkg:bitnami/rabbitmq"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"3.13.0"},{"fixed":"3.13.15"},{"introduced":"4.0.0"},{"fixed":"4.0.20"},{"introduced":"4.1.0"},{"fixed":"4.1.11"},{"introduced":"4.2.0"},{"fixed":"4.2.6"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/bitnami/vulndb/tree/main/data/rabbitmq/BIT-rabbitmq-2026-67229.json"},"severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:X/CR:X/IR:X/AR:X/MAV:X/MAC:X/MAT:X/MPR:X/MUI:X/MVC:X/MVI:X/MVA:X/MSC:X/MSI:X/MSA:X/S:X/AU:X/R:X/V:X/RE:X/U:X"}]}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
