A remote unauthenticated attacker could exploit this to cause the broker to exhaust all available memory and eventually terminate.
HIGH 7.5EPSS 4.39%
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.39%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
In Apache Qpid Broker-J versions 6.1.0 through 6.1.4 (inclusive) the broker does not properly enforce a maximum frame size in AMQP 1.0 frames. A remote unauthenticated attacker could exploit this to cause the broker to exhaust all available memory and eventually terminate. Older AMQP protocols are not affected.
