Apache RocketMQ < 4.9.7 / 5.x < 5.1.2 RCE (CVE-2023-37582)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 185454

Language:

Synopsis

The web application running on the remote web server is affected by a remote code execution vulnerability.

Description

The RocketMQ NameServer component still has a remote command execution vulnerability as the CVE-2023-33246 issue was not completely fixed in version 4.9.6 / 5.1.1. When NameServer address are leaked on the extranet and lack permission verification, an attacker can exploit this vulnerability by using the update configuration function on the NameServer component to execute commands as the system users that RocketMQ is running as.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Apache RocketMQ version 4.9.7, 5.1.2 or later
