Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Apache ActiveMQ versions 5.0.0 through 5.15.11

Description The issue is related to a lack of input data sanitization in the webconsole admin GUI of Apache ActiveMQ, which makes it susceptible to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. Specifically, the view that lists the contents of a queue is vulnerable. This could allow a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting attacks.

Recommendations For Apache ActiveMQ versions 5.0.0 through 5.15.11, consider disabling the webconsole admin GUI or restricting access to it until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the queue contents view in the webconsole admin GUI to minimize the risk of exploitation.
