CVE-2026-40914 Details
Description
A vulnerability exists in Apache Artemis whereby an application using the STOMP protocol with security credentials that grant either the consume or send permission on an address can augment the routing-type supported by that address even if said user doesn't have the createAddress permission for that particular address. A user could successfully send a message to an address or consume a message from a queue with a routing-type not supported by the corresponding address when that operation should actually be rejected on the basis that the user doesn't have permission to change the routing-type of the address. Even though the user was already granted permission to send and/or consume messages, they should not be able to augment the routing-type of the address without the createAddress permission. This issue affects Apache Artemis: from 2.50.0 through 2.53.0; Apache ActiveMQ Artemis: from 2.0.0 through 2.44.0. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.54.0, which fixes the issue.
A vulnerability in Apache Artemis and Apache ActiveMQ Artemis allows users to modify the routing-type of addresses via the STOMP protocol, without having the necessary permissions. This issue affects Apache Artemis versions 2.50.0 to 2.53.0 and Apache ActiveMQ Artemis versions 2.0.0 to 2.44.0. The vulnerability arises because users with send or consume permissions can change the routing-type, even if they lack the createAddress permission for that address. As a result, users could send or receive messages using unsupported routing-types, contrary to the intended permission restrictions.
Users are advised to upgrade to Apache Artemis or Apache ActiveMQ Artemis version 2.54.0, which addresses this vulnerability.
