Описание
RabbitMQ is a messaging and streaming broker. From 4.0.0 until 4.3.3, 4.2.9, 4.1.14, and 4.0.23, Shovel does not format state logged by the crash reporter and can leave unencrypted credentials in a crash dump file. the shovel worker genserver processes does not implement the formatstatus/2 callback. When these processes crash (e.g., due to network partitions, connection failures), the OTP SASL error handler writes the full process state , including plaintext AMQP passwords and URIs , to the error log. This is particularly severe for the shovel worker, which stores deobfuscated plaintext URIs (including amqp://user:password@host format) in its genserver state for the entire process Automatic Credential Exposure: Shovel worker crashes (common during network partitions) automatically write plaintext upstream/downstream passwords to error logs No Special Configuration Needed: Unlike DEBUG logging, SASL error reports are always active Broad. This issue is fixed in versions 4.3.3, 4.2.9, 4.1.14, and 4.0.23.
A flaw was found in rabbitmq-server. When the Shovel plugin worker process crashes due to network or connection failures, it fails to sanitize its internal state before logging error reports. As a result, sensitive connection details and unencrypted credentials, including plaintext passwords, are written directly to crash dump files and error logs. An unauthorized user with access to these log files can read the credentials, leading to information disclosure and potential unauthorized access to connected message brokers.
Отчет
Red Hat products that include rabbitmq-server are not affected by this vulnerability. Red Hat OpenStack Platform 13, 16.2, and 17.1 ship RabbitMQ 3.x, which predates the introduction of this flaw in version 4.0.0. Red Hat OpenStack Platform 18.0 and Red Hat Hardened Images (Hummingbird) ship versions 4.2.9 and 4.3.6 respectively, which already include the fix. This vulnerability requires the Shovel plugin to be configured and active; the flaw is in the Shovel worker's failure to implement the format_status callback, causing plaintext credentials to be written to crash logs during process failures.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability.
