Null Pointer Dereference
AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H

Wazuh is a free and open source platform used for threat prevention, detection, and response. A NULL pointer dereference was detected during fuzzing of the analysis engine, allowing malicious clients to DoS the analysis engine. The bug occurs when analysisd receives a syscollector message with the hotfix msgtype but lacking a timestamp. It uses cJSONGetObjectItem() to get the timestamp object item and dereferences it without checking for a NULL value. A malicious client can DoS the analysis engine. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.7.1.
