Executive Summary

CVE-2026-41701 is a security vulnerability in Spring AMQP versions 2.4.0 to 2.4.17, 3.1.0 to 3.1.16, 3.2.0 to 3.2.10, and 4.0.0 to 4.0.3.

The issue involves predictable correlation IDs for replies in the RabbitTemplate.sendAndReceive() method when using fixed reply queues. This predictability is due to an internal simple counter.

Because the correlation IDs are predictable, it can lead to reply poisoning, where an attacker might inject or manipulate replies.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can allow an attacker to perform reply poisoning by predicting correlation IDs in the messaging system.

Reply poisoning can lead to unauthorized or malicious replies being accepted by the application, potentially causing data integrity issues or incorrect application behavior.

The overall severity is classified as medium, with a CVSS base score of 4.4, indicating a moderate impact.

Mitigation Strategies

The immediate step to mitigate this vulnerability is to upgrade Spring AMQP to the fixed versions.

  • Upgrade to version 2.4.18 if you are using the 2.4.x series.
  • Upgrade to version 3.1.16 if you are using the 3.1.x series.
  • Upgrade to version 3.2.11 if you are using the 3.2.x series.
  • Upgrade to version 4.0.4 if you are using the 4.0.x series.

No additional mitigation steps are required beyond upgrading.
