critical Web App Scanning Plugin ID 115042

Synopsis

Wazuh 4.4x < 4.9.1 Remote Code Execution

Description

According to the self-reported version in its response header, the version of Wazuh hosted on the remote web server is 4.4.x prior to 4.9.1. It is, therefore, affected by a Remote Code Execution through an unsafe deserialization by anybody with API access.

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Wazuh version 4.9.1 Patch Level 1 or later.
