It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-28220 exists.\n\nAffected product: Wazuh Wazuh. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-28220/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-28220/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-28220","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-28220/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-28220","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-w2jj-pfq9-mh9p"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Wazuh security platform","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"A cluster peer can execute privileged functions on the master node via unsafe deserialization and RBAC context injection, leading to full manager compromise.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"deserialization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"wazuh","vendor":"wazuh"}],"cvss":{"score":8.4,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-502","name":"Deserialization of Untrusted Data"}],"description":"Wazuh is a free and open source platform used for threat prevention, detection, and response. Prior to version 4.14.5, issues in the Cluster Distributed API (DAPI) handling allow a cluster peer, or any actor able to authenticate to the cluster channel using the shared cluster key, to make the master node deserialize an attacker-controlled callable and execute it under an attacker-controlled RBAC context. The cluster code in `framework/wazuh/core/cluster/common.py` deserializes JSON with `as_wazuh_object()`, which resolves any callable whose top-level package is wazuh or api (an overly broad allowlist controlled only by `ALLOWED_CALLABLES_PACKAGES`), and DAPI requests handled in framework/wazuh/core/cluster/dapi/dapi.py accept a client-supplied rbac_permissions value that `run_local()` applies as the global RBAC context, so supplying an rbac_mode of black causes authorization checks for expose_resources-protected functions to pass without any legitimate permission assignment. Combined, these allow privileged administrative actions on the master node such as arbitrary file writes under WAZUH_PATH, creation of new API users, and tampering with security.yaml, and can be chained into full manager compromise. This issue has been fixed in version 4.14.5.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Deserialization in wazuh","id":"CVE-2026-28220","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"wazuh:wazuh","products":["wazuh:wazuh"],"type":"deserialization","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Wazuh: Pre-auth stack-based buffer overflow in wazuh-remoted print_hex_string() due to signed char promotion on x86_64","id":"CVE-2026-28221"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege Escalation via Mass Assignment Allows Regular Users to Set Topics as Global Banners","id":"CVE-2026-28219"},"products":["wazuh"],"published":"2026-07-20","related":[{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Wazuh Server Deserialization of Untrusted Data","id":"CVE-2025-24016","kev_date_added":"2025-06-10","published":"2025-02-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Wazuh Analysis Engine Event Decoder Heap-based Buffer Overflow Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-32038","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-04-19"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-44079","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-11-22"},{"cvss_score":9.5,"headline":"Remote code execution and local privilege escalation in Wazuh Windows agent via NetNTLMv2 hash theft","id":"CVE-2024-1243","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-06-11"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Wazuh cluster worker file sync allows arbitrary file write under /var/ossec (incomplete fix for CVE-2026-30893)","id":"CVE-2026-61800","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-27"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Wazuh: merged-file header path traversal in cluster sync allows arbitrary file write under WAZUH_PATH in Wazuh manager","id":"CVE-2026-48024","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-19"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Path traversal in wazuh","id":"CVE-2026-48162","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-19"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-07-20","vendors":["wazuh"]},"summary":"A cluster peer can execute privileged functions on the master node via unsafe deserialization and RBAC context injection, leading to full manager compromise.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-28220/"}
