Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to External Control of File Name or Path due to improper input validation. An attacker with control over the OSSEC server or in possession of the agent's key can configure the agent to connect to a malicious UNC path, resulting in the leakage of the machine account NetNTLMv2 hash. This hash can be relayed for unauthorized actions or used to escalate privileges to SYSTEM via AD CS certificate forging and other similar attacks.
