Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
RabbitMQ is a messaging and streaming broker. Prior to 3.13.14, 4.0.19, 4.1.10, and 4.2.5, the rabbitmq_federation_management plugin renders the consumer_tag field on the Federation Status page without HTML escaping, allowing a user who can configure a federation upstream or policy to execute JavaScript in the browser of a user viewing that page. This issue is fixed in versions 3.13.14, 4.0.19, 4.1.10, and 4.2.5.
AnalysisAI
Stored cross-site scripting in the RabbitMQ federation management plugin allows any user with federation upstream or policy configuration privileges to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the browser of an administrator viewing the Federation Status page. The rabbitmq_federation_management plugin renders the consumer_tag field without HTML escaping, making it a persistent injection vector that fires passively when a victim navigates to the page. No public exploit code and no CISA KEV listing are identified at time of analysis; the CVSS 4.0 score of 5.7 reflects meaningful but constrained risk due to the high-privilege prerequisite.
Technical ContextAI
RabbitMQ is an AMQP-based open-source message broker; its optional rabbitmq_federation_management plugin extends the built-in management UI to expose federation link status, including consumer tags sourced from upstream federation connections. The consumer_tag is a user-controlled string set when configuring federation upstreams or policies, and CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation) identifies the root cause: this value is interpolated directly into the HTML of the Federation Status page without character escaping, allowing angle brackets and script tags to be interpreted as markup by the victim's browser. The CPE string cpe:2.3:a:rabbitmq:rabbitmq-server:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* confirms the vulnerability spans the rabbitmq-server package across all affected major release tracks (3.13.x, 4.0.x, 4.1.x, 4.2.x), with the fix delivered via commits 33dedfe4 and c2d0d69e as referenced in PRs #15708 and #15711.
RemediationAI
Upgrade RabbitMQ to one of the vendor-released patched versions: 3.13.14, 4.0.19, 4.1.10, or 4.2.5, which introduce HTML escaping for the consumer_tag field via the fixes in PRs #15708 and #15711 (commits 33dedfe4 and c2d0d69e). The 4.2.5 release is confirmed at https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/releases/tag/v4.2.5; equivalent releases for the 3.13.x, 4.0.x, and 4.1.x tracks are documented in the security advisory at https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/security/advisories/GHSA-qxrp-7cmp-p77h. If upgrade is not immediately possible, disable the rabbitmq_federation_management plugin on any node where federation status visibility in the UI is not operationally required - this eliminates the vulnerable rendering surface entirely, though it removes federation link status from the management console. As a complementary control, restrict federation upstream and policy configuration permissions to the smallest possible set of administrators, shrinking the population of accounts that could plant a malicious consumer_tag.
