CVE-2010-3701: Medium severity redhat Enterprise MRG vulnerability
A flaw was discovered in how the MRG broker handled the receipt of large persistent messages. If a remote authenticated user were to send a very large persistent message, the broker could exhaust stack memory, resulting in a segfault of the broker. Subsequent connections to the broker would fail until it was restarted.
Other sources
lib/MessageStoreImpl.cpp in Red Hat Enterprise MRG before 1.2.2 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (stack memory exhaustion and broker crash) via a large persistent message.
