The optional ActiveMQ LDAP login module can be configured to use anonymous access to the LDAP server. In this case, for Apache ActiveMQ Artemis prior to version 2.16.0 and Apache ActiveMQ prior to versions 5.16.1 and 5.15.14, the anonymous context is used to verify a valid users password in error, resulting in no check on the password.

Weakness

When an actor claims to have a given identity, the product does not prove or insufficiently proves that the claim is correct.

Name Vendor Start Version End Version
Activemq Apache 5.15.0 (including) 5.15.14 (excluding)
Activemq Apache 5.16.0 (including) 5.16.1 (excluding)
