RabbitMQ 3.13.x < 3.13.14 / 4.0.x < 4.0.19 / 4.1.x < 4.1.10 / 4.2.x < 4.2.5 Multiple Vulnerabilities

high Nessus Plugin ID 327580

Synopsis

The RabbitMQ installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of RabbitMQ installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- The rabbitmq_management HTTP API accepts oversized valid JSON bodies on with_decode and direct_request paths because read_complete_body checks the accumulated size before the final chunk but not the final combined size.
(CVE-2026-57212)

- The rabbitmq_federation_management plugin renders the consumer_tag field on the Federation Status page without HTML escaping, allowing a user who can configure a federation upstream or policy to execute JavaScript in the browser of a user viewing that page. (CVE-2026-57213)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to RabbitMQ version 3.13.14, 4.0.19, 4.1.10, 4.2.5, or later.
