What is CVE-2017-15701?

In Apache Qpid Broker-J versions 6.1.0 through 6.1.4, a vulnerability exists that allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to exploit the broker's failure to enforce a maximum frame size in AMQP 1.0 frames. By sending specially crafted requests, an attacker can cause the server to exhaust its available memory, leading to a denial of service condition as the broker terminates unexpectedly. Older versions using different AMQP protocols are not impacted by this issue. This vulnerability emphasizes the importance of validating inputs to prevent potential resource exhaustion attacks.
