    6.2.4· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    Integer Overflow or Wraparound vulnerability in Apache ActiveMQ, Apache ActiveMQ All, Apache ActiveMQ MQTT. The fix for "CVE-2025-66168: MQTT control packet remaining length field is not properly validated" was only applied to 5.19.2 (and future 5.19.x) releases but was missed for all 6.0.0+ versions. This issue affects Apache ActiveMQ: from 6.0.0 before 6.2.4; Apache ActiveMQ All: from 6.0.0 before 6.2.4; Apache ActiveMQ MQTT: from 6.0.0 before 6.2.4. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 6.2.4 or a 5.19.x version starting with 5.19.2 or later (currently latest is 5.19.5), which fixes the issue.

    Apache ActiveMQ is Vulnerable to Integer Overflow or Wraparound

    CVE-2025-66168 · GHSA-c825-6ph3-4h84

    Affected
    • Maven org.apache.activemq:activemq-mqtt < 5.19.2; >= 6.0.0, < 6.1.9; >= 6.2.0, <= 6.2.0
    Fixed in
    6.2.15.19.26.1.9· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    Apache ActiveMQ does not properly validate the remaining length field which may lead to an overflow during the decoding of malformed packets. When this integer overflow occurs, ActiveMQ may incorrectly compute the total Remaining Length and subsequently misinterpret the payload as multiple MQTT control packets which makes the broker susceptible to unexpected behavior when interacting with non-compliant clients. This behavior violates the MQTT v3.1.1 specification, which restricts Remaining Length to a maximum of 4 bytes. The scenario occurs on established connections after the authentication process. Brokers that are not enabling mqtt transport connectors are not impacted. This issue affects Apache ActiveMQ: before 5.19.2, 6.0.0 to 6.1.8, and 6.2.0 Users are recommended to upgrade to version 5.19.2, 6.1.9, or 6.2.1, which fixes the issue.

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 6.2.1, 6.1.9 or 5.19.2 by release line, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
