Recent Eclipse Mosquitto Security Vulnerabilities
In Eclipse Mosquito before and including 2.0.5, establishing a connection to the mosquitto server without sending data causes the EPOLLOUT event to be added
CVE-2023-5632
7.5 - High
- October 18, 2023
In Eclipse Mosquito before and including 2.0.5, establishing a connection to the mosquitto server without sending data causes the EPOLLOUT event to be added, which results excessive CPU consumption. This could be used by a malicious actor to perform denial of service type attack. This issue is fixed in 2.0.6
Excessive Iteration
In Mosquitto before 2.0.16, a memory leak occurs when clients send v5 CONNECT packets with a will message
CVE-2023-3592
7.5 - High
- October 02, 2023
In Mosquitto before 2.0.16, a memory leak occurs when clients send v5 CONNECT packets with a will message that contains invalid property types.
Memory Leak
In Mosquitto before 2.0.16, excessive memory is allocated based on malicious initial packets
CVE-2023-0809
5.3 - Medium
- October 02, 2023
In Mosquitto before 2.0.16, excessive memory is allocated based on malicious initial packets that are not CONNECT packets.
Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling
The broker in Eclipse Mosquitto 1.3.2 through 2.x before 2.0.16 has a memory leak
CVE-2023-28366
7.5 - High
- September 01, 2023
The broker in Eclipse Mosquitto 1.3.2 through 2.x before 2.0.16 has a memory leak that can be abused remotely when a client sends many QoS 2 messages with duplicate message IDs, and fails to respond to PUBREC commands. This occurs because of mishandling of EAGAIN from the libc send function.
Memory Leak
In versions 1.6 to 2.0.11 of Eclipse Mosquitto
CVE-2021-41039
7.5 - High
- December 01, 2021
In versions 1.6 to 2.0.11 of Eclipse Mosquitto, an MQTT v5 client connecting with a large number of user-property properties could cause excessive CPU usage, leading to a loss of performance and possible denial of service.
In Eclipse Mosquitto versions 2.0 to 2.0.11, when using the dynamic security plugin, if the ability for a client to make subscriptions on a topic is revoked when a durable client is offline, then existing subscriptions for
CVE-2021-34434
5.3 - Medium
- August 30, 2021
In Eclipse Mosquitto versions 2.0 to 2.0.11, when using the dynamic security plugin, if the ability for a client to make subscriptions on a topic is revoked when a durable client is offline, then existing subscriptions for that client are not revoked.
AuthZ
In Eclipse Mosquitto versions 2.07 and earlier
CVE-2021-34432
7.5 - High
- July 27, 2021
In Eclipse Mosquitto versions 2.07 and earlier, the server will crash if the client tries to send a PUBLISH packet with topic length = 0.
In Eclipse Mosquitto version 1.6 to 2.0.10, if an authenticated client
CVE-2021-34431
6.5 - Medium
- July 22, 2021
In Eclipse Mosquitto version 1.6 to 2.0.10, if an authenticated client that had connected with MQTT v5 sent a crafted CONNECT message to the broker a memory leak would occur, which could be used to provide a DoS attack against the broker.
Memory Leak
In Eclipse Mosquitto version 2.0.0 to 2.0.9, if an authenticated client
CVE-2021-28166
6.5 - Medium
- April 07, 2021
In Eclipse Mosquitto version 2.0.0 to 2.0.9, if an authenticated client that had connected with MQTT v5 sent a crafted CONNACK message to the broker, a NULL pointer dereference would occur.
NULL Pointer Dereference
In Eclipse Mosquitto 1.5.0 to 1.6.5 inclusive, if a malicious MQTT client sends a SUBSCRIBE packet containing a topic
CVE-2019-11779
6.5 - Medium
- September 19, 2019
In Eclipse Mosquitto 1.5.0 to 1.6.5 inclusive, if a malicious MQTT client sends a SUBSCRIBE packet containing a topic that consists of approximately 65400 or more '/' characters, i.e. the topic hierarchy separator, then a stack overflow will occur.
Stack Exhaustion
If an MQTT v5 client connects to Eclipse Mosquitto versions 1.6.0 to 1.6.4 inclusive, sets a last will and testament, sets a will delay interval, sets a session expiry interval, and the will delay interval is set longer than the session expiry interval, then a use after free error occurs
CVE-2019-11778
5.4 - Medium
- September 18, 2019
If an MQTT v5 client connects to Eclipse Mosquitto versions 1.6.0 to 1.6.4 inclusive, sets a last will and testament, sets a will delay interval, sets a session expiry interval, and the will delay interval is set longer than the session expiry interval, then a use after free error occurs, which has the potential to cause a crash in some situations.
Dangling pointer
In Eclipse Mosquitto version
CVE-2017-7655
7.5 - High
- March 27, 2019
In Eclipse Mosquitto version from 1.0 to 1.4.15, a Null Dereference vulnerability was found in the Mosquitto library which could lead to crashes for those applications using the library.
NULL Pointer Dereference
When Eclipse Mosquitto version 1.0 to 1.5.5 (inclusive) is configured to use a password file for authentication
CVE-2018-12551
8.1 - High
- March 27, 2019
When Eclipse Mosquitto version 1.0 to 1.5.5 (inclusive) is configured to use a password file for authentication, any malformed data in the password file will be treated as valid. This typically means that the malformed data becomes a username and no password. If this occurs, clients can circumvent authentication and get access to the broker by using the malformed username. In particular, a blank line will be treated as a valid empty username. Other security measures are unaffected. Users who have only used the mosquitto_passwd utility to create and modify their password files are unaffected by this vulnerability.
authentification
When Eclipse Mosquitto version 1.0 to 1.5.5 (inclusive) is configured to use an ACL file, and
CVE-2018-12550
8.1 - High
- March 27, 2019
When Eclipse Mosquitto version 1.0 to 1.5.5 (inclusive) is configured to use an ACL file, and that ACL file is empty, or contains only comments or blank lines, then Mosquitto will treat this as though no ACL file has been defined and use a default allow policy. The new behaviour is to have an empty ACL file mean that all access is denied, which is not a useful configuration but is not unexpected.
In Eclipse Mosquitto version 1.0 to 1.5.5 (inclusive) when a client publishes a retained message to a topic, then has its access to
CVE-2018-12546
6.5 - Medium
- March 27, 2019
In Eclipse Mosquitto version 1.0 to 1.5.5 (inclusive) when a client publishes a retained message to a topic, then has its access to that topic revoked, the retained message will still be published to clients that subscribe to that topic in the future. In some applications this may result in clients being able cause effects that would otherwise not be allowed.
Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource
Eclipse Mosquitto 1.5.x before 1.5.5
CVE-2018-20145
7.5 - High
- December 13, 2018
Eclipse Mosquitto 1.5.x before 1.5.5 allows ACL bypass: if the option per_listener_settings was set to true, and the default listener was in use, and the default listener specified an acl_file, then the acl file was being ignored.
Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource
In Eclipse Mosquitto versions 1.5 to 1.5.2 inclusive, if a message is published to Mosquitto
CVE-2018-12543
7.5 - High
- November 15, 2018
In Eclipse Mosquitto versions 1.5 to 1.5.2 inclusive, if a message is published to Mosquitto that has a topic starting with $, but that is not $SYS, e.g. $test/test, then an assert is triggered that should otherwise not be reachable and Mosquitto will exit.
