Description
A flaw was found in Apache ActiveMQ. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability by repeatedly sending BrokerInfo commands without corresponding ConnectionInfo commands. This can lead to an Out of Memory condition, causing the broker to crash and resulting in a Denial of Service.
Statement
Red Hat products that include Apache ActiveMQ classic components ship versions prior to 5.19.7 (5.x line) and prior to 6.2.6 (6.x line). The vulnerable code was introduced as a regression in versions 5.19.7 and 6.2.6 while fixing CVE-2026-49270, and is not present in the versions shipped by Red Hat. Products shipping Apache ActiveMQ Artemis are not affected as Artemis is a separate codebase.
