"The version of RabbitMQ installed on the remote host is 4.1.x prior to 4.1.11, or 4.2.x prior to 4.2.9, or 4.3.x prior
to 4.3.3. It is, therefore, affected by a denial of service vulnerability:

  - The stream management HTTP API handler for super stream creation (PUT /api/stream/super-streams/{vhost}/{name})
    builds the full list of streams from the client-supplied binding-keys field before it checks the user's resource
    permissions. An authenticated management user with access to the vhost, but with no configure, write, or read
    permission, can therefore force large memory allocations and crash a node that runs under a memory limit.
    (CVE-2026-67408)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
