CVE-2026-6564 Details
Description
A vulnerability was found in EMQ EMQX Enterprise up to 6.1.0. The impacted element is an unknown function of the component Session Handling. The manipulation results in improper authorization. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been made public and could be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
A vulnerability exists in EMQ EMQX Enterprise versions through 6.1.0, where the session handling component improperly manages authorization by using the Client ID as the only session identifier, without linking it to the authenticated username. This flaw allows an authenticated attacker to disconnect a legitimate user by connecting with the same Client ID, leading to a denial-of-service condition. The vulnerability can be exploited remotely, and a public exploit is available.
It is recommended to enforce a unique constraint that combines Client ID with username to prevent cross-user session interference. Additionally, consider adding a broker configuration option to bind Client IDs to specific users.
