Subject: CVE-2026-49877: Apache ActiveMQ: Authenticated web users retain
 admin access by default in the Web Console 

Severity: important 

Affected versions:

- Apache ActiveMQ (org.apache.activemq:apache-activemq) before 5.19.8
- Apache ActiveMQ (org.apache.activemq:apache-activemq) 6.0.0 before 6.2.7

Description:

Improper Authorization vulnerability in Apache ActiveMQ.

An authenticated low-privilege Web Console user by default can access /admin/* paths in the Web Console. The default Jetty settings incorrectly did not limit those paths to only admins.
This issue affects Apache ActiveMQ: before 5.19.8, from 6.0.0 before 6.2.7.

Users are recommended to upgrade to version 6.2.7 or 5.19.8, which fixes the issue.
