CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe vulnerability allows a malicious client to exploit stomper 5e2741e by sending partial STOMP frames, leading to a Denial of Service condition. This results in TCP connections entering a permanent half-read state, causing the broker to become unresponsive as it fails to process new messages. Organizations using this broker should prioritize addressing this issue to prevent service disruptions.

Original NVD Description
stomper 5e2741e is vulnerable to Denial of Service. A malicious client can send partial STOMP frames and keep the TCP connections open, which, combined with the broker s use of edge-triggered epoll (EPOLLET) and MSG_PEEK in recv(), causes sockets to enter a permanent half-read state. When enough such connections accumulate, the broker stops receiving any further epoll events for those sockets and eventually hangs in epoll_wait, effectively refusing to process new messages.
