Improper validation and restriction of a classpath path name vulnerability in
Apache ActiveMQ Client, Apache ActiveMQ Broker, Apache ActiveMQ All, Apache ActiveMQ Web, Apache ActiveMQ.
In two instances (when creating a Stomp consumer and also browsing messages in the Web console) an authenticated user provided "key" value could be constructed to traverse the classpath due to path concatenation. As a result, the application is exposed to a classpath path resource loading vulnerability that could potentially be chained together with another attack to lead to exploit.
This issue affects Apache ActiveMQ Client: before 5.19.3, from 6.0.0 before 6.2.2; Apache ActiveMQ Broker: before 5.19.3, from 6.0.0 before 6.2.2; Apache ActiveMQ All: before 5.19.3, from 6.0.0 before 6.2.2; Apache ActiveMQ Web: before 5.19.3, from 6.0.0 before 6.2.2; Apache ActiveMQ: before 5.19.3, from 6.0.0 before 6.2.2.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 5.19.4 or 6.2.3, which fixes the issue. Note: 5.19.3 and 6.2.2 also fix this issue, but that is limited to non-Windows environments due to a path separator resolution bug fixed in 5.19.4 and 6.2.3.
