CVE-2026-25771

Estado: AnalizadaAlta (7.5)—

Wazuh is a free and open source platform used for threat prevention, detection, and response. Starting in version 4.3.0 and prior to version 4.14.3, a Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability exists in the Wazuh API authentication middleware (`middlewares.py`). The application uses an asynchronous event loop (Starlette/Asyncio) to call a synchronous function (`generate_keypair`) that performs blocking disk I/O on every request containing a Bearer token. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this by flooding the API with requests containing invalid Bearer tokens.

This forces the single-threaded event loop to pause for file read operations repeatedly, starving the application of CPU resources and potentially preventing it from accepting or processing legitimate connections. Version 4.14.3 fixes the issue.

CVSS

Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).

🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK

Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.

Vector CVSS AV:N/PR:N sin UI ni acceso local → T1190. CWE-400 (Uncontrolled Resource Consumption) y descripción explícita de DoS por flooding de requests HTTP → T1499.004 (Application DoS).

Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.

A partir de la versión 4.3.0 y antes de la versión 4.14.3, existe una vulnerabilidad de denegación de servicio (DoS) en el middleware de autenticación de la API de Wazuh ('middlewares.py'). La aplicación utiliza un bucle de eventos asíncrono (Starlette/Asyncio) para llamar a una función síncrona ('generate_keypair') que realiza operaciones de E/S de disco bloqueantes en cada solicitud que contiene un token Bearer. Un atacante remoto no autenticado puede explotar esto inundando la API con solicitudes que contienen tokens Bearer no válidos. Esto fuerza al bucle de eventos de un solo hilo a pausar repetidamente para operaciones de lectura de archivos, privando a la aplicación de recursos de CPU y potencialmente impidiendo que acepte o procese conexiones legítimas. La versión 4.14.3 corrige el problema."
