{"id":"BIT-rabbitmq-2026-67406","summary":"RabbitMQ: Federation and Shovel Gen-Servers Lack format_status Callback — Plaintext Credentials Exposed in Crash Dumps and sys:get_status","details":"RabbitMQ is a messaging and streaming broker. From 4.0.0 until 4.3.3, 4.2.9, 4.1.14, and 4.0.23, Shovel does not format state logged by the crash reporter and can leave unencrypted credentials in a crash dump file. the shovel worker genserver processes does not implement the formatstatus/2 callback. When these processes crash (e.g., due to network partitions, connection failures), the OTP SASL error handler writes the full process state , including plaintext AMQP passwords and URIs , to the error log. This is particularly severe for the shovel worker, which stores deobfuscated plaintext URIs (including amqp://user:password@host format) in its genserver state for the entire process Automatic Credential Exposure: Shovel worker crashes (common during network partitions) automatically write plaintext upstream/downstream passwords to error logs No Special Configuration Needed: Unlike DEBUG logging, SASL error reports are always active Broad. This issue is fixed in versions 4.3.3, 4.2.9, 4.1.14, and 4.0.23.","aliases":["CVE-2026-67406","GHSA-q44f-9vc5-grh7"],"modified":"2026-10-01T10:10:53.446638747Z","published":"2026-10-01T09:33:45.070Z","database_specific":{"severity":"Medium","cpes":["cpe:2.3:a:vmware:rabbitmq:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*"]},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/releases/tag/v4.2.9"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/releases/tag/v4.3.3"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/security/advisories/GHSA-q44f-9vc5-grh7"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-67406"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"rabbitmq","ecosystem":"Bitnami","purl":"pkg:bitnami/rabbitmq"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"4.0.0"},{"fixed":"4.0.23"},{"introduced":"4.1.0"},{"fixed":"4.1.14"},{"introduced":"4.2.0"},{"fixed":"4.2.9"},{"introduced":"4.3.0"},{"fixed":"4.3.3"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/bitnami/vulndb/tree/main/data/rabbitmq/BIT-rabbitmq-2026-67406.json"},"severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:H/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"}
