This issue is fixed in versions 4.0.22 and 4.1.14 and 4.2.7 and 4.3.1.
A flaw was found in rabbitmq-server. An authenticated remote user with policymaker privileges can cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by sending repeated HTTP requests with unique parameter names to the global parameters API endpoint. Because user-supplied parameter names are unsafely converted into internal system identifiers (atoms) that cannot be garbage collected, the server's fixed atom table is exhausted. This resource exhaustion results in a crash of the RabbitMQ node, disrupting messaging broker availability.
Отчет
Red Hat has evaluated this vulnerability as having a Moderate severity because exploitation requires high privileges alongside network access to the administrative interface. The flaw can only be triggered when the RabbitMQ management plugin is enabled and accessible, and an attacker must authenticate with at least the policymaker tag. Additionally, causing an Erlang atom table exhaustion necessitates transmitting a very large volume of unique requests, limiting the risk to service availability without compromising data integrity or confidentiality.
