Attackers holding a valid cluster Fernet key can craft a malicious node name and disconnect, triggering the master's peer cleanup routine to remove the contents of arbitrary directories within the Wazuh installation path writable by the wazuh user.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-08-18T17:26:50.81+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-01T15:20:45.615+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"wazuh-manager","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"vendor\": \"Wazuh\",\n                    \"product\": \"wazuh-manager\",\n                    \"packageURL\": \"pkg:github/wazuh/wazuh\",\n                    \"repo\": \"https://github.com/wazuh/wazuh\",\n                    \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\",\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"4.0.0\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"semver\",\n                            \"lessThan\": \"4.14.6\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 4.0","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","score":7,"severity":"HIGH"},{"system":"CVSS 3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H","score":6.5,"severity":"MEDIUM"}],"references":["https://github.com/wazuh/wazuh/security/advisories/GHSA-f34r-fcjf-qx6j","https://github.com/wazuh/wazuh/pull/36460","https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/wazuh-path-traversal-arbitrary-directory-deletion-via-cluster-hello"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-74044","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-74044","identifiers":["CVE-2026-74044"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[]}
