A critical Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability exists in Wazuh server versions >= 4.4.0 and < 4.9.1. The vulnerability occurs due to unsafe deserialization in the wazuh-manager package, specifically in the DistributedAPI where parameters are serialized as JSON and deserialized using as_wazuh_object in the framework/wazuh/core/cluster/common.py file. An attacker with API access can exploit this vulnerability by injecting an unsanitized dictionary into DAPI requests, leading to arbitrary Python code execution.
