## RabbitMQ 3.8.7
|
||
|
|
||
|
RabbitMQ `3.8.7` is a maintenance release that patches
|
||
|
a security vulnerability.
|
||
|
|
||
|
RabbitMQ Core team would like to thank Ofir Hamam and Tomer Hadad at Ernst & Young's Hacktics Advanced Security Center
|
||
|
for researching and responsibly disclosing the vulnerability addressed in this release.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Erlang/OTP Compatibility Notes
|
||
|
|
||
|
This release [**requires Erlang/OTP 21.3**](https://www.rabbitmq.com/which-erlang.html) or later.
|
||
|
`22.3` or `23.0` releases are recommended.
|
||
|
|
||
|
[Provisioning Latest Erlang Releases](https://www.rabbitmq.com/which-erlang.html#erlang-repositories) explains
|
||
|
what package repositories and tools can be used to provision latest patch versions of Erlang `22.3.x`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Upgrade Doc Guides and Change Log
|
||
|
|
||
|
See [3.8.0 release notes](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/releases/tag/v3.8.0) upgrade and
|
||
|
compatibility notes first if upgrading from an earlier release.
|
||
|
|
||
|
See the [Upgrading guide](https://www.rabbitmq.com/upgrade.html) for general documentation on upgrades and
|
||
|
[RabbitMQ change log](https://www.rabbitmq.com/changelog.html) for release notes of other releases.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Upgrading to Erlang 21.x or Later Versions
|
||
|
|
||
|
When upgrading to this release from `3.7.6` or an older version, extra care has to be taken.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Since CLI tools from RabbitMQ releases older than 3.7.7 will fail on Erlang 21 or later,
|
||
|
RabbitMQ **must be upgraded at the same time as Erlang**.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Alternatively the node can be upgraded to `3.7.18` first, then Erlang 22.x or 23.x, then RabbitMQ to most recent
|
||
|
3.8.x release.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Getting Help

||

||
|

|
||
|
and cannot be executed remotely.
|
||
|
|
||
|
[CVSS score](https://www.first.org/cvss/calculator/3.0#CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H): `6.7` (medium severity).

|
#### Bug Fixes
|

### Federation Plugin
|
||
