CVE-2026-74761: Apache ActiveMQ Broker, Apache ActiveMQ All, Apache ActiveMQ: Spoofing of RemoveSubscription clientId
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 30/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.62% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 50.1% of all records.
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
- Fixed version: Apache Software Foundation Apache ActiveMQ 5.19.11, 6.3.2; Apache Software Foundation Apache ActiveMQ All 5.19.11, 6.3.2; Apache Software Foundation Apache ActiveMQ Broker 5.19.11, 6.3.2.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Apache Software Foundation Apache ActiveMQ 5.19.11, 6.3.2; Apache Software Foundation Apache ActiveMQ All 5.19.11, 6.3.2; Apache Software Foundation Apache ActiveMQ Broker 5.19.11, 6.3.2 or later.

Improper input validation in TopicRegion in Apache ActiveMQ, Apache ActiveMQ Broker, and Apache ActiveMQ All on all platforms. An authenticated client can spoof clientId when removing a durable topic subscription. This issue affects Apache ActiveMQ Broker: before 5.19.11, from 6.0.0 before 6.3.2; Apache ActiveMQ All: before 5.19.11, from 6.0.0 before 6.3.2; Apache ActiveMQ: before 5.19.11, from 6.0.0 before 6.3.2. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 6.3.2 or 5.19.11 which fixes the issue.
