What is CVE-2026-27446?
A vulnerability in Apache Artemis and Apache ActiveMQ Artemis allows unauthenticated remote attackers to exploit the Core protocol, compelling a broker to establish outbound federations to attacker-controlled brokers. This scenario raises significant risks for message integrity, enabling potential message injection or exfiltration. The issue chiefly affects environments permitting incoming connections from untrusted sources and outgoing connections to untrusted targets. To mitigate this, it is crucial to either disable Core protocol support for untrusted acceptors or implement two-way SSL for secure, certificate-based authentication across client connections. Users are advised to upgrade to version 2.52.0 for enhanced security.
