DescriptionCVE.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_management HTTP API accepts oversized valid JSON bodies on with_decode and direct_request paths because read_complete_body checks the accumulated size before the final chunk but not the final combined size. This issue is fixed in versions 3.13.14, 4.0.19, 4.1.10, and 4.2.5.

AnalysisAI

Uncontrolled resource consumption in the RabbitMQ Management plugin's HTTP API lets an authenticated client crash or degrade the broker by submitting oversized-but-valid JSON bodies. The flaw lives in read_complete_body, which validates accumulated body size before the final chunk but never checks the final combined size, so the with_decode and direct_request code paths buffer and decode payloads that exceed intended limits. Affected releases are all versions prior to 3.13.14, 4.0.19, 4.1.10, and 4.2.5; no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV.

Technical ContextAI

RabbitMQ is a widely used AMQP/streaming message broker (Erlang/OTP). The vulnerable component is the optional rabbitmq_management plugin, which exposes an HTTP REST/management API (default TCP 15672). Requests can be chunked; read_complete_body accumulates chunks and is supposed to enforce a maximum body size. The defect is an off-by-boundary size check: it compares the accumulated size before appending the final chunk but omits a check on the total combined size once the last chunk is added, so an oversized JSON payload passes validation and is fully buffered and JSON-decoded. This maps to CWE-770 (Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling): unbounded memory/CPU is consumed parsing the payload, exhausting broker resources. Per the CPE (cpe:2.3:a:rabbitmq:rabbitmq-server), the exposure exists in rabbitmq-server itself when the management API is enabled.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: upgrade to RabbitMQ 3.13.14, 4.0.19, 4.1.10, or 4.2.5 (or later) on the matching branch - this restores the missing final combined-size check on read_complete_body per the advisory GHSA-5cmq-vp28-xqrj and fixes referenced in PRs #15712/#15714 and commits 3976d14/b8fc2ef; release artifacts are at https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/releases/tag/v4.2.5. Where immediate patching is not possible, reduce exposure by restricting access to the management HTTP API (default port 15672): bind it to localhost or a management VLAN, place it behind a reverse proxy or firewall that enforces a small max request-body size to cap oversized JSON before it reaches the broker, and never expose 15672 to the internet - trade-off is that legitimate management clients must route through the proxy/allowed network. Additionally, tighten management-plugin user permissions and rotate/limit low-privilege management credentials, since exploitation requires authenticated access; if the management plugin is not needed, disabling it (rabbitmq-plugins disable rabbitmq_management) removes the attack surface entirely at the cost of losing the web UI and REST API.
