+Apache Qpid Incubating Java M4 Release Notes

+
+From the link above you can access our Getting Started Guide, FAQ, Build How To
+and detailed developer documentation.
+
+New features, Improvements and Bug fixes
+----------------------
+
+A security related problem was addressed. If Base64MD5 passwords are
+turned on on the broker and it has been configured to use JMXMP via
+the addition of jxmremote_optional.jar to the classpath, it is
+possible for an attacker to bypass the authentication on the JMX
+management interface due to a bug in password verification.
+
+A new command line management interface was added (qpid-cli)
+
