Description

Improper Input Validation, Improper Control of Generation of Code (&amp;#39;Code Injection&amp;#39;) vulnerability in Apache ActiveMQ Broker, Apache ActiveMQ All, Apache ActiveMQ.<br /> <br /> Apache ActiveMQ Classic exposes the Jolokia JMX-HTTP bridge at /api/jolokia/ on the web console. The default Jolokia access policy permits exec operations on all ActiveMQ MBeans (org.apache.activemq:*), including<br /> BrokerService.addNetworkConnector(String).<br /> <br /> An authenticated attacker can invoke these operations with a crafted discovery URI that triggers the VM transport&amp;#39;s brokerConfig parameter using the "masterslave:// " URL which can allow loading a Spring XML application context using ResourceXmlApplicationContext.<br /> Because Spring&amp;#39;s ResourceXmlApplicationContext instantiates all singleton beans before the BrokerService validates the configuration, arbitrary code execution occurs on the broker&amp;#39;s JVM through bean factory methods such as Runtime.exec().<br /> This issue affects Apache ActiveMQ Broker: before 5.19.7, from 6.0.0 before 6.2.6; Apache ActiveMQ All: before 5.19.7, from 6.0.0 before 6.2.6; Apache ActiveMQ: before 5.19.7, from 6.0.0 before 6.2.6.<br /> <br /> Users are recommended to upgrade to version 5.19.7 or 6.2.6, which fixes the issue.
