CVE-2011-3620

Description

From CVE.org

Apache Qpid 0.12 does not properly verify credentials during the joining of a cluster, which allows remote attackers to obtain access to the messaging functionality and job functionality of a cluster by leveraging knowledge of a cluster-username.

Statement

This flaw only affects the clustered implementation in qpid-cpp (qpidd-cpp-server-cluster) which is only available in Red Hat Enterprise MRG. The qpid-cpp-server as provided with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 does not include this functionality, and is thus not affected.

Info alert:Important note

CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
