CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

RabbitMQ amqp091-go versions prior to 1.13.0 are vulnerable due to the absence of validation for the prefetchCount and prefetchSize parameters in the Channel.Qos method, allowing negative integers to wrap to large unsigned values. This can lead to excessive memory consumption and potential disruption of message processing if untrusted configurations are used. Organizations utilizing this library should prioritize upgrading to version 1.13.0 to mitigate the risk of memory exhaustion attacks.

Original NVD Description

RabbitMQ amqp091-go is a Go AMQP 0.9.1 client. Prior to 1.13.0, Channel.Qos in channel.go accepts negative prefetchCount and prefetchSize integers and casts them directly to uint16 and uint32 fields in the basic.qos method because validateQos is absent. Values such as -1 therefore wrap to 65535 or 4294967295 instead of being rejected. An application that permits untrusted configuration of these Qos values can unintentionally request extremely large prefetch limits, allowing a broker to deliver enough queued messages to exhaust client memory and disrupt processing. This issue is fixed in version 1.13.0.
