Summary

CVE-2026-57215 is a high-severity Incorrect Authorization (CWE-863) vulnerability in Broadcom Rabbitmq Server. Its CVSS base score is 7.0 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 31th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-3 (Access Enforcement) and SI-2 (Flaw Remediation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data

RabbitMQ is a messaging and streaming broker. Prior to 3.13.15, 4.0.20, 4.1.11, and 4.2.6, RabbitMQ allows foreign bindings to amq.rabbitmq.reply-to destinations because volatile direct-reply-to queues can be accepted at bind and route time but are missing from Khepri-backed deletion checks,…

more

leaving persistent route entries after unbind. This issue is fixed in versions 3.13.15, 4.0.20, 4.1.11, and 4.2.6.

MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI

T1190 Exploit Public-Facing Application Initial Access
Adversaries may attempt to exploit a weakness in an Internet-facing host or system to initially access a network.
Why these techniques?

The vulnerability allows unauthorized bindings to internal reply-to queues in RabbitMQ, enabling external attackers to exploit a public-facing messaging service (T1190) due to improper authorization checks (CWE-863) during bind/route operations.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

prevent

Directly enforces authorization checks on bind/route operations for reply-to destinations, blocking the foreign binding flaw described in the CVE.

prevent

Restricts binding privileges to only those required, limiting the ability to create persistent unauthorized routes to volatile queues.

prevent

Requires prompt application of the vendor patches (3.13.15/4.0.20/4.1.11/4.2.6) that restore Khepri-backed deletion checks for direct-reply-to queues.

PR.AA-05 mostly match
prevents

Defining, enforcing, and reviewing access authorizations and least privilege directly prevents incorrect authorization checks.

Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

prevents

Requiring consistency between access rights and classification plus formal approval steps ensures that the authorization logic correctly distinguishes between entities that should and should not be granted access.

prevents

Enforcing policy-driven approval and role-change reviews stops incorrect or stale authorization decisions from remaining in effect after job changes or terminations.

prevents

By tying access rights to identity, device, location and classification, the control reduces the likelihood that an authorization decision will be based on an incorrect or bypassed policy.
