How to Fix CVE-2016-4432
To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Qpid broker plugins amqp 0 8 protocol dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.qpid</groupId>
<artifactId>qpid-broker-plugins-amqp-0-8-protocol</artifactId>
<version>6.0.3</version>
</dependency><dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.qpid</groupId>
<artifactId>qpid-broker-plugins-amqp-1-0-protocol</artifactId>
<version>6.0.3</version>
</dependency>Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:
mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.apache.qpidHow to Check if You Are Affected
To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2016-4432, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:
mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.apache.qpidAnalyze the terminal output to locate any version of Qpid broker plugins amqp 0 8 protocol in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 6.0.3), your application is affected.
Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.apache.qpid command inspects the resolved dependency graph declared in your project's POM files; it does not perform automated security scanning or inspect runtime dynamic classpaths. Always verify runtime container classpaths and shaded JARs.
