A flaw was found in Apache Camel AWS2-SQS Component. This vulnerability allows a remote attacker, with permissions to send messages to a consumed SQS queue, to inject arbitrary Camel control headers into the message exchange. This is due to a missing inbound header filter strategy. The injected headers can then influence the behavior of downstream producers in the route, potentially leading to unauthorized message manipulation or redirection of data. camel-aws2-sqs: Apache Camel: Camel-AWS2-SQS: Inbound message attributes are mapped into the Exchange without an inbound HeaderFilterStrategy, allowing a message sender to inject Camel control headers This is a Critical improper input validation vulnerability in the `camel-aws2-sqs` component of Red Hat build of Apache Camel. A remote attacker with `sqs:SendMessage` permissions to a consumed SQS queue can inject arbitrary Camel control headers into the message exchange.
