CVE-2026-74044 Aug 18, 17:26 HIGH PATCH This Week

Path traversal via unsanitized cluster node names in Wazuh Manager 4.0.0 through 4.14.5 enables authenticated cluster peers to delete arbitrary directory contents on the master node. An attacker holding a valid cluster Fernet key can supply a traversal-shaped node name (e.g., '../../etc') in the cluster hello handshake, then disconnect - causing the master's peer cleanup routine to recursively remove the contents of directories outside the intended cluster queue path, writable by the wazuh user. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and a vendor patch is available in 4.14.6.

CVE-2026-74039 Aug 18, 17:26 HIGH PATCH This Week

CPU exhaustion in Wazuh Manager 4.0.0-4.14.6 and 5.0.0-beta2 allows authenticated API users with the allow_run_as permission to fully deny service to all other API consumers by submitting arbitrarily deeply nested JSON to the POST /security/user/authenticate/run_as endpoint. The API framework processes these structures recursively without any depth or size limit, consuming CPU proportionally to nesting depth until the process becomes unresponsive. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, though the attack primitive is trivially constructible from the CVE description alone.

CVE-2026-74038 Aug 18, 17:25 HIGH PATCH This Week

Path traversal in Wazuh Manager 4.0.0 through 4.14.5 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to destroy the manager's queue directory structure and halt all Wazuh services by registering an agent whose name begins with a dot (e.g., ".."). Two compounding weaknesses drive the impact: OS_IsValidName() failed to reject dot-prefixed agent names, and delete_diff() performs unsafe path concatenation that resolves the traversal sequence to the parent queue directory, wiping its subdirectories. Recovery requires manual intervention, creating a complete and sustained loss of SIEM and XDR visibility. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis.

CVE-2026-74046 Aug 18, 17:27 MEDIUM PATCH This Month

Memory exhaustion in Wazuh Manager 4.4.0 through 4.14.6 allows authenticated cluster peers to crash the wazuh-clusterd daemon on the master node by submitting a specially crafted zip bomb archive during cluster synchronization. The fdecompress_files() function in cluster.py invoked zlib.decompress() without any decompressed-size limit, enabling an attacker holding a valid cluster Fernet key to force unbounded memory allocation from a tiny compressed payload. No public exploit has been identified and the vulnerability is absent from CISA KEV; Wazuh has released a fix in version 4.14.7 via GitHub pull request #37119.

CVE-2025-15616 Mar 27, 16:38 HIGH PATCH This Week

Multiple shell injection and untrusted search path vulnerabilities in Wazuh agent and manager (versions 2.1.0 through 4.7.x) enable remote code execution through malicious configuration parameters. Authenticated attackers with high privileges can inject commands via logcollector configuration files, maild SMTP server tags, and Kaspersky AR script parameters. The CVSS 4.0 score of 7.1 reflects network-accessible attack vector with low complexity but requiring high-privilege credentials; no public exploit identified at time of analysis.

CVE-2025-15615 Mar 27, 16:23 MEDIUM This Month

Wazuh Manager authd service through version 4.7.3 fails to properly restrict client-initiated SSL/TLS renegotiation requests, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to trigger excessive renegotiations that consume CPU resources and cause denial of service. The vulnerability affects the authentication daemon across all Wazuh Manager deployments running vulnerable versions, enabling attackers to render the authd service unavailable with no authentication required and minimal attack complexity.
