Summary
CVE-2026-32642 describes an incorrect authorization vulnerability in Apache Artemis and Apache ActiveMQ Artemis, allowing an authenticated user with 'createDurableQueue' permission to create a non-durable JMS subscription on a non-existent address, despite lacking 'createAddress' permission. Consequently, a temporary address is created, which should not occur.
Risk Assessment
The organization may be exposed to unauthorized address creation, potentially leading to unforeseen consequences in resource management and application security.
Recommendation
It is recommended to upgrade to version 2.53.0, which fixes this vulnerability.
Original NVD description (English source)
Incorrect Authorization (CWE-863) vulnerability in Apache Artemis, Apache ActiveMQ Artemis exists when an application using the OpenWire protocol attempts to create a non-durable JMS topic subscription on an address that doesn't exist with an authenticated user which has the "createDurableQueue" permission but does not have the "createAddress" permission and address auto-creation is disabled. In this circumstance, a temporary address will be created whereas the attempt to create the non-durable subscription should instead fail since the user is not authorized to create the corresponding address. When the OpenWire connection is closed the address is removed. This issue affects Apache Artemis: from 2.50.0 through 2.52.0; Apache ActiveMQ Artemis: from 2.0.0 through 2.44.0. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.53.0, which fixes the issue.
