Mosquitto 1.5.3 has been released to address a security vulnerability. It also
|
||||
includes other bug fixes.
|
||||
|
||||
# CVE-2018-12543
|
||||
|
||||
A vulnerability exists in Mosquitto versions 1.5 to 1.5.2 inclusive, known as
|
||||
[CVE-2018-12543].
|
||||
|
||||
If a message received by the broker has a topic that begins with `$`, but that
|
||||
does not begin `$SYS`, an assert is triggered that should otherwise not be
|
||||
accessible, causing Mosquitto to exit.
|
||||
|
||||
The issue is fixed in Mosquitto 1.5.3. Patches for older versions are
|
||||
available at <https://mosquitto.org/files/cve/2018-12543>
|
||||
|
||||
The fix addresses the problem by reverting a commit that intended to remove
|
||||
some unused checks, but also stopped part of the topic hierarchy being created.
|
||||
|
||||
