Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for activemq.

CVE-2025-27533[0]:
| Memory Allocation with Excessive Size Value vulnerability in Apache
| ActiveMQ.  During unmarshalling of OpenWire commands the size value
| of buffers was not properly validated which could lead to excessive
| memory allocation and be exploited to cause a denial of service
| (DoS) by depleting process memory, thereby affecting applications
| and services that rely on the availability of the ActiveMQ broker
| when not using mutual TLS connections. This issue affects Apache
| ActiveMQ: from 6.0.0 before 6.1.6, from 5.18.0 before 5.18.7, from
| 5.17.0 before 5.17.7, before 5.16.8. ActiveMQ 5.19.0 is not
| affected.  Users are recommended to upgrade to version 6.1.6+,
| 5.19.0+,  5.18.7+, 5.17.7, or 5.16.8 or which fixes the issue.
| Existing users may implement mutual TLS to mitigate the risk on
| affected brokers.
