Summary

Wazuh from 3.9.0 before 4.14.9 does not verify the TLS hostname in the fluent-forward module's wm_fluent_ssl_ctx() function. A network attacker can impersonate the Fluentd collector by presenting any certificate that chains to the configured ca_file. An attacker who redirects the connection through DNS, ARP, or an on-path position can receive forwarded security telemetry and the shared_key_hexdigest, which can then be cracked offline (CWE-297).

Description from the CNA

Wazuh from 3.9.0 before 4.14.9 contains a missing TLS hostname verification vulnerability in the fluent-forward module's wm_fluent_ssl_ctx() that allows network attackers to impersonate the Fluentd collector by presenting any certificate chaining to the configured ca_file. Attackers who redirect the connection via DNS, ARP, or on-path positions can receive forwarded security telemetry and the shared_key_hexdigest for offline cracking.
