An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2019-11287 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- RabbitMQ (Hex): affected all versions; fixed in 1.16.7\n- RabbitMQ (Hex): affected all versions; fixed in 1.16.7\n- RabbitMQ (Hex): affected from 1.17.0; fixed in 1.17.4\n- RabbitMQ (Hex): affected from 1.17.0; fixed in 1.17.4\n- RabbitMQ (Hex): affected from 3.7.0; fixed in 3.7.21\n- RabbitMQ (Hex): affected from 3.7.0; fixed in 3.7.21\n- RabbitMQ (Hex): affected from 3.8.0; fixed in 3.8.1\n- RabbitMQ (Hex): affected from 3.8.0; fixed in 3.8.1\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-11287/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-11287/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-11287","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-11287/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-11287","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2019-11287","GHSA-hrfh-7j5f-8ccr","UBUNTU-CVE-2019-11287"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"RabbitMQ message broker","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"An attacker can crash the RabbitMQ server by sending a malicious HTTP header to the web management plugin, causing a heap overflow.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"pivotal","cpe":[{"product":"rabbitmq_server","vendor":"broadcom"},{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"product":"fedora","vendor":"fedoraproject"},{"product":"rabbitmq","vendor":"pivotal_software"},{"product":"openstack","vendor":"redhat"}],"cvss":{"score":4.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-134","name":"Use of Externally-Controlled Format String"},{"id":"CWE-400","name":"Uncontrolled Resource Consumption"}],"description":"Pivotal RabbitMQ, versions 3.7.x prior to 3.7.21 and 3.8.x prior to 3.8.1, and RabbitMQ for Pivotal Platform, 1.16.x versions prior to 1.16.7 and 1.17.x versions prior to 1.17.4, contain a web management plugin that is vulnerable to a denial of service attack.
