In some applications this may result in clients being able cause effects that would otherwise not be allowed.

MEDIUM 6.5EPSS 0.80%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.80%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

In Eclipse Mosquitto version 1.0 to 1.5.5 (inclusive) when a client publishes a retained message to a topic, then has its access to that topic revoked, the retained message will still be published to clients that subscribe to that topic in the future. In some applications this may result in clients being able cause effects that would otherwise not be allowed.
