Dangerous Apache ActiveMQ Exploit Allows Stealthy EDR Bypass

siteadmin November 16, 2023

A proof-of-concept exploit for a critical security flaw in Apache ActiveMQ enables remote code execution on servers while remaining undetected. Although the flaw was patched by Apache, many organisations remain vulnerable. The exploit facilitates stealthier attacks on the vulnerability, allowing attackers to gain access and potentially cause damage such as account access removal, destroying data, or hijacking resources. Administrators are urged to patch the vulnerability as soon as possible.
