CVE-2026-57822 PUBLISHED

Apache Artemis, Apache ActiveMQ Artemis: Message-based management parameter deserialization may lead to denial of service

Assigner: apache
Reserved: 25.06.2026 Published: 10.09.2026 Updated: 10.09.2026

When the broker is processing message-based management requests, sent by an authenticated messaging client that is authorized with MANAGE permission to perform management-via-messaging, the parameter processing can trigger Java deserialization of certain method parameters that the broker will not utilise. The permitted types allow to craft a payload causing excessive computation and pinning the processing thread, leading to denial of service.

This issue affects Apache Artemis: from 2.50.0 through 2.56.0; Apache ActiveMQ Artemis: from 1.3.0 through 2.44.0.

Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.57.0, which fixes the issue.
