2) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2012-6551)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform service disruption.

The default configuration of Apache ActiveMQ before 5.8.0 enables a sample web application, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (broker resource consumption) via HTTP requests.


3) Improper Authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2013-3060)
