CVE-2026-67591Network attack vector

Authenticated service interruption via flow-control window exceedance

Published Aug 5, 2026 · Updated Aug 5, 2026

Denial of service in Apache Qpid ProtonJ2 1.1.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to interrupt AMQP services. Apache identifies the incoming session flow-control window as the affected locus but has not published the code path or validation error that permits it to be exceeded. An authenticated AMQP peer can trigger the condition, interrupting the embedding client or service without reported data disclosure or modification.
