NewCVE-2026-41044 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade org.apache.activemq:activemq-broker to version 5.19.6, 6.2.5 or higher.
Overview
org.apache.activemq:activemq-broker is a high performance Apache 2.0 licensed Message Broker and JMS 1.1 implementation.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Arbitrary Code Injection in the DestinationView MBean exposed by Jolokia. An attacker can achieve arbitrary code execution by crafting a malicious broker name that bypasses validation, embedding an xbean binding that is later used by a VM transport to load a remote Spring XML application. This allows the attacker to trigger the loading of a malicious Spring XML context file, resulting in the instantiation of arbitrary beans and execution of code on the broker's JVM through methods such as Runtime.exec().
