Descriptions

XML external entity (XXE) vulnerability in Apache ActiveMQ 5.x before 5.10.1 allows remote consumers to have unspecified impact via vectors involving an XPath based selector when dequeuing XML messages.

Una vulnerabilidad de XML External Entity (XXE) en Apache ActiveMQ, en versiones 5.x anteriores a la 5,10,1 permite que consumidores remotos provoquen impactos no especificados mediante vectores que implican un selector basado en XPath al eliminar de la cola los mensajes XML.

It was discovered that Apache ActiveMQ performed XML External Entity (XXE) expansion when evaluating XPath expressions. A remote, attacker-controlled consumer able to specify an XPath-based selector to dequeue XML messages from an Apache ActiveMQ broker could use this flaw to read files accessible to the user running the broker, and potentially perform other more advanced XXE attacks.
