{"id":"BIT-rabbitmq-2026-67235","summary":"RabbitMQ: AMQP 0-9-1 body assembly never validates accumulated size","details":"RabbitMQ is a messaging and streaming broker. Prior to versions 4.3.0, 4.2.6, 4.1.11, 4.0.20, and 3.13.15, The content-header BodySize (a uint64) was stored without validation against max_message_size. The size check ran only when assembly completed. By declaring body_size = 2^63-1 and then streaming fragments, a client ensured that check_msg_size never fired, so the accumulated body size went unbounded. A reader process accumulates memory until the memory alarm fires, degrading all publishers cluster-wide, or until the node runs out of memory. The memory alarm provides only partial mitigation, since it is reactive rather than preventive. AMQP 0-9-1 is the most widely used protocol, and any publisher can trigger this condition. Preconditions include Any authenticated AMQP 0-9-1 client with publish permission can exploit this.. This issue is fixed in versions 4.3.0, 4.2.6, 4.1.11, 4.0.20, and 3.13.15.","aliases":["CVE-2026-67235","GHSA-q8g2-pc7m-m3jw"],"modified":"2026-10-01T10:10:55.910869979Z","published":"2026-10-01T09:33:30.002Z","database_specific":{"severity":"High","cpes":["cpe:2.3:a:vmware:rabbitmq:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*"]},"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-q8g2-pc7m-m3jw"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-67235"}],"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-2026-67235.json"},"severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/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"}
