{"id":"UBUNTU-CVE-2026-33216","details":"NATS-Server is a High-Performance server for NATS.io, a cloud and edge native messaging system. Prior to versions 2.11.15 and 2.12.6, for MQTT deployments using usercodes/passwords: MQTT passwords are incorrectly classified as a non-authenticating identity statement (JWT) and exposed via monitoring endpoints. Versions 2.11.14 and 2.12.6 contain a fix. As a workaround, ensure monitoring end-points are adequately secured. Best practice remains to not expose the monitoring endpoint to the Internet or other untrusted network users.","modified":"2026-07-02T18:02:50.952763434Z","published":"2026-03-25T20:16:00Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-33216"],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2026-33216"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-33216"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://advisories.nats.io/CVE/secnote-2026-05.txt"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/nats-io/nats-server/commit/b5b63cfc35a57075e09c1f57503d31721bed8099"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/nats-io/nats-server/security/advisories/GHSA-v722-jcv5-w7mc"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"nats-server","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:24.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/nats-server?arch=source&distro=noble"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["2.9.19-1build1","2.10.3-1","2.10.4-1","2.10.7-1","2.10.7-1ubuntu0.1","2.10.7-1ubuntu0.2","2.10.7-1ubuntu0.3"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"2.10.7-1ubuntu0.3","binary_name":"golang-github-nats-io-nats-server-dev"},{"binary_name":"nats-server","binary_version":"2.10.7-1ubuntu0.3"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-33216.json"}},{"package":{"name":"nats-server","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:25.10","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/nats-server?arch=source&distro=questing"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["2.10.24-1","2.10.27-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"2.10.27-1","binary_name":"golang-github-nats-io-nats-server-dev"},{"binary_version":"2.10.27-1","binary_name":"nats-server"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-33216.json"}},{"package":{"name":"nats-server","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:Pro:26.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/nats-server?arch=source&distro=esm-apps%2Fresolute"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["2.10.27-1","2.10.27-1build1","2.10.27-1ubuntu0.26.04.1~esm1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"2.10.27-1ubuntu0.26.04.1~esm1","binary_name":"golang-github-nats-io-nats-server-dev"},{"binary_version":"2.10.27-1ubuntu0.26.04.1~esm1","binary_name":"nats-server"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-33216.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N"},{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N"},{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N"},{"type":"Ubuntu","score":"medium"}]}
