Description

The Fileserver web application in Apache ActiveMQ 5.x before 5.14.0 allows remote attackers to upload and execute arbitrary files via an HTTP PUT followed by an HTTP MOVE request.

Analysis

Apache ActiveMQ 5.x before 5.14.0 exposes a Fileserver web application that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to upload and execute arbitrary files through HTTP PUT followed by HTTP MOVE requests.

Technical Context

The CWE-434 unrestricted file upload vulnerability exists because the Fileserver servlet accepts PUT requests to upload arbitrary files, and MOVE requests to relocate them to directories served by the web application. An attacker uploads a JSP web shell and moves it to a location where it can be executed.

Affected Products

['Apache ActiveMQ 5.x before 5.14.0']

Remediation

Upgrade ActiveMQ to 5.14.0+. Disable or remove the Fileserver web application. Restrict network access to ActiveMQ management interfaces. Review for existing web shells.
