Hi,

The following vulnerabilities were published for activemq.

CVE-2026-59878[0]:
| Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Apache ActiveMQ AMQP,
| Apache ActiveMQ, Apache ActiveMQ All.  A remote unauthenticated peer
| that can reach an exposed AMQP NIO connector can trigger denial-of-
| service behavior by sending a frame size value. This cause the NIO
| threads to die and if done rapidly enough can lead to exhaustion of
| the NIO thread pool denying service to other connections. This issue
| affects Apache ActiveMQ AMQP: before 5.19.9, from 6.0.0 before
| 6.2.8; Apache ActiveMQ: before 5.19.9, from 6.0.0 before 6.2.8;
| Apache ActiveMQ All: before 5.19.9, from 6.0.0 before 6.2.8.  Users
| are recommended to upgrade to version 5.19.9, 6.2.8, or 6.3.0 which
| fixes the issue.


CVE-2026-61487[1]:
| Improper Authorization vulnerability in Apache ActiveMQ Broker,
| Apache ActiveMQ All, Apache ActiveMQ.   An authenticated low-
| privilege user can bypass a per-destination write ACL by sending to
| an ActiveMQ temporary composite destination whose physical name is a
| comma-separated composite of real queues. This allows publishing
| messages to any of the destinations in the list without proper write
| ACL permissions because the authorization check is bypassed due to
| the composite destination being marked as temporary. This issue
| affects Apache ActiveMQ Broker: before 5.19.9, from 6.0.0 before
| 6.2.8; Apache ActiveMQ All: before 5.19.9, from 6.0.0 before 6.2.8;
| Apache ActiveMQ: before 5.19.9, from 6.0.0 before 6.2.8.  Users are
| recommended to upgrade to version 5.19.9, 6.2.8 or 6.3.0, which
| fixes the issue.
