Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Buffer Underwrite (Buffer Underflow) via the decode_win_permissions() function. An attacker can execute arbitrary code on the wazuh manager by sending a specially crafted agent message.

Note:

This is only exploitable if the attacker is able to craft and send agent messages to the wazuh manager and the specifics of the heap allocator allow exploitation.
