A flaw was found in Spring Boot. When configured to use an SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) bundle, Spring Boot's RabbitMQ auto-configuration does not perform hostname verification when connecting to the RabbitMQ broker. This vulnerability could allow an attacker on the same network to intercept or alter communications. The primary consequences include potential information disclosure and data tampering.
