    Chess Hazlett discovered that Apache ActiveMQ incorrectly handled certain commands. A remote attacker
    could possibly use this issue to terminate the program, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only
    affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. (CVE-2015-7559)

    Peter Stckli discovered that Apache ActiveMQ incorrectly handled hostname verification. A remote
    attacker could possibly use this issue to perform a person-in-the-middle attack. This issue only affected
    Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. (CVE-2018-11775)

    Jonathan Gallimore and Colm  higeartaigh discovered that Apache ActiveMQ incorrectly handled
    authentication in certain functions. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to perform a person-
    in-the-middle attack. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.
    (CVE-2020-13920)

    Gregor Tudan discovered that Apache ActiveMQ incorrectly handled LDAP authentication. A remote attacker
    could possibly use this issue to acquire unauthenticated access. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04
    LTS, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. (CVE-2021-26117)

    It was discovered that Apache ActiveMQ incorrectly handled authentication. A remote attacker could
    possibly use this issue to run arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-41678)

    It was discovered that Apache ActiveMQ incorrectly handled deserialization. A remote attacker could
    possibly use this issue to run arbitrary shell commands. (CVE-2023-46604)
