Description Mauro Matteo Cascella 2026-11-04 10:23:49 UTC
Disclaimer: Community trackers are created by Red Hat Product Security team on a best effort basis. Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process.

RabbitMQ is a messaging and streaming broker. From 3.13.0 until 4.3.3, 4.2.9 , 4.1.14, 4.0.24, and 3.13.18, Federation upstream in RabbitMQ skips vhost authorization allowing cross-vhost message access. what the bug lets you do. A policymaker on one vhost reads and drains messages out of another vhost it has no permission on. With the default ack-mode the source messages are consumed (deleted), not copied. Why that should not 1. Federation validates the upstream URI without any vhost-access Cross-vhost message read/drain from a per-vhost policymaker, breaking vhost tenancy This issue is fixed in versions 4.3.3, 4.2.9 , 4.1.14, 4.0.24, and 3.13.18.

Comment 1 Peter Lemenkov 2026-11-04 15:44:17 UTC
This issue is fixed upstream in RabbitMQ 4.2.9 and 4.3.3. Fedora 45 and rawhide ship rabbitmq-server-4.3.7, and Fedora 44 ships rabbitmq-server-4.2.9, so both are already fixed.

The Fedora 43 (4.0.9) status is still being evaluated.
