NATS Server is a high-performance server for NATS.io, the cloud and edge native messaging system. Prior to 2.14.3 and 2.12.12, MQTT retained message delivery and QoS1+ durable replay could deliver messages whose original topics matched a subscriber configured subscribe deny rule because these delivery paths did not consistently recheck the concrete original topic before sending the MQTT PUBLISH to the subscriber. This issue is fixed in versions 2.14.3 and 2.12.12.
CVE-2026-58209
This medium-severity CVE scores 4.3 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.3%, top 73% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
