CVE-2015-5254: Improper Input Validation

May 13, 2022 (updated July 6, 2022)

Apache ActiveMQ 5.x before 5.13.0 does not restrict the classes that can be serialized in the broker, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted serialized Java Message Service (JMS) ObjectMessage object.
