Summary

A vulnerability in RabbitMQ before versions 3.13.15, 4.0.20, 4.1.11, and 4.2.6 allows a loopback-restricted user (e.g., guest) to authenticate remotely when traffic is accepted through a trusted PROXY path and the backend listener is loopback-bound. The issue is due to the loopback check using the listener-side socket address instead of the real client source.

Risk Assessment

The organization is at risk of unauthorized access to the RabbitMQ broker by users who should be restricted to localhost, potentially leading to confidentiality and integrity breaches of messages.

Recommendation

Immediately upgrade RabbitMQ to version 3.13.15, 4.0.20, 4.1.11, or 4.2.6 depending on the branch in use. After upgrading, verify the PROXY configuration and access rules for restricted users.

Original NVD description (English source)

RabbitMQ is a messaging and streaming broker. Prior to 3.13.15, 4.0.20, 4.1.11, and 4.2.6, AMQP 0-9-1, AMQP 1.0, and Stream Protocol authentication can allow a loopback-restricted user such as guest to connect remotely when traffic is accepted through a trusted PROXY-protocol path and the backend listener is loopback-bound because the loopback check uses the listener-side socket address instead of the real client source. This issue is fixed in versions 3.13.15, 4.0.20, 4.1.11, and 4.2.6.
