CVE-2026-34197Known exploitationNetwork attack vector

Authenticated code execution via remote Spring XML loading

Published Apr 7, 2026 · Updated Apr 7, 2026

Code injection in Apache ActiveMQ Classic before 5.19.4 and 6.0.0 through 6.2.2 allows remote authenticated users to execute JVM code. BrokerService.addNetworkConnector(String) and addConnector(String) accept a crafted discovery URI whose brokerConfig loads a remote ResourceXmlApplicationContext and instantiates singleton beans before validation. Access to the authenticated Jolokia web console is required, and a bean factory method such as Runtime.exec() runs with the broker JVM's privileges.
