rabbitmq-c is a C-language AMQP client library for RabbitMQ.
rabbitmq-c is a C-language AMQP client library for RabbitMQ. Prior to version 0.17.0, the bounds check (*offset = o + len) <= encoded.len overflows when o + len > SIZE_MAX on 32-bit systems. len is a uint32_t read from the AMQP wire as a BYTES/UTF8 field length. The overflow wraps the check to a small value that passes, producing a decoded amqp_bytes_t with a multi-GB .len pointing into a small frame buffer. This results in an out-of-bounds read of up to ~4GB of process memory on 32-bit systems (ARM, MIPS, x86 ILP32, embedded IoT AMQP clients). Enabling information disclosure or denial of service. Not exploitable on 64-bit systems where size_t is 64-bit. This issue has been patched in versio
