Information Exposure in RabbitMQ Messaging Broker
CVE-2026-66076
What is CVE-2026-66076?
RabbitMQ, a widely used messaging and streaming broker, has a vulnerability that allows unauthorized users to access sensitive information. Specifically, prior to certain versions, the is_authorized/2 function only checks the management tag without proper verification of user access to virtual hosts. This allows any user with management access to read critical Raft status information, including the cluster's topology, even if they do not have permission to access that virtual host. The vulnerability is particularly concerning as it exposes internal details that could facilitate further attacks. The issue has been addressed in updates 3.13.15, 4.0.20, 4.1.11, 4.2.6, and 4.3.0. Ensure your RabbitMQ installation is updated to mitigate the risk.
