Vulnerability in github.com/rabbitmq/amqp091-go (CVE-2026-77405)
Summary
Vulnerability in github.com/rabbitmq/amqp091-go (CVE-2026-77405). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure. Exploitable via tlsConfigFromURI. Mitigation: upgrade to 1.13.0 or later.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
Summary
A structural security weakness exists in the AMQP client's TLS configuration generator (tlsConfigFromURI). When constructing a *tls.Config object from an amqps:// connection URI, the library initializes the structure without explicitly defining the MinVersion field.
While modern versions of the Go compiler toolchain (Go 1.18+) default the implicit minimum version to TLS 1.2, this security posture relies entirely on an implicit toolchain dependency. If the library is compiled using legacy Go toolchains (Go < 1.18), or if a future toolchain introduces fallback behavior, the client could silently negotiate obsolete and insecure TLS 1.0 or TLS 1.1 protocols during connection handshakes with a compromised or malicious AMQP broker.
Vulnerability Details
Mechanism
The vulnerability lies in the lack of an explicit safety floor when assigning configurations inside the URI component:
// Example within uri.go's tlsConfigFromURI
cfg := &tls.Config{
ServerName: host,
// MinVersion is left completely unassigned (defaults to 0, or toolchain default)
}
In the Go standard library (crypto/tls), leaving MinVersion: 0 instructs the runtime to choose the toolchain's default minimum. Prior to Go 1.18, this default allowed negotiation down to TLS 1.0. Relying on implicit compiler configurations violates secure coding practices by decoupling the library's security posture from its source code, leaving applications vulnerable based solely on…
