Apache Qpid Proton C vulnerabilities

A misconfigured wildcard TLS certificate causes a stack read overflow. This issue does not affect any wildcard certificate issued to the RFC9525 standard — the fix only accepts certificates that comply with this standard. The issue affects Apache Qpid Proton C through 0.40.0.

When dispatching SASL frames to authenticate the peer, Proton will also dispatch AMQP frames if they claim to be SASL frames. This allows authentication bypass, though no user name will be set, so the effects depend on how the application handles this condition — meaning authentication has not completed yet. The issue affects Apache Qpid Proton C through 0.40.0.

A message body that is deeply nested and decoded by pn_message_body() could overflow the stack and cause a crash. The issue affects Apache Qpid Proton C through 0.40.0.

A vulnerability in Apache Qpid Proton C (through 0.40.0) affects the OpenSSL TLS implementation. The pn_ssl_domain_set_trusted_ca_db() and pn_tls_config_set_trusted_certs() APIs added to rather than replaced the default system trust anchors, potentially causing unexpected peer certificates to be trusted.
