When this integer overflow occurs, ActiveMQ may incorrectly compute the total Remaining Length and subsequently misinterpret the payload as multiple MQTT control packets which makes the broker susceptible to unexpected behavior when interacting with non-compliant clients. This behavior violates the MQTT v3.1.1 specification, which restricts Remaining Length to a maximum of 4 bytes. The scenario occurs on established connections after the authentication process. Brokers that are not enabling mqtt transport connectors are not impacted.\n\nThis issue affects Apache ActiveMQ: before 5.19.2, 6.0.0 to 6.1.8, and 6.2.0\n\nUsers are recommended to upgrade to version 5.19.2, 6.1.9, or 6.2.1, which fixes the issue.", "aliases": [ { "alias": "CVE-2025-66168" }, { "alias": "GHSA-c825-6ph3-4h84" } ], "fixed_packages": [ { "url":
