| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Advisory ID | SGZ-2026-0CB06 |
| Severity | MEDIUM |
| CWE | CWE-690 |
| Confidence | 95% |
| Category | logic_flaw |
| Exploitability | likely |
| Package | github.com/example/kafka@latest (golang) |
| Location | kafka/utils.go:15-23 |
| Attack Vector | NETWORK |
| Attack Complexity | LOW |
| Privileges Required | NONE |
| Discovered By | SafeGuard Zero-Day AI Discovery Engine |
The MapEq function dereferences resultV without ensuring it is non-nil when expectedV is non-nil. Supplying a map where a key maps to a nil pointer triggers a runtime panic, leading to a denial-of-service condition.
The vulnerability was identified in the file kafka/utils.go at lines 15-23 within the github.com/example/kafka package (version latest). Any code path that invokes these functions inherits this vulnerability.
File: kafka/utils.go (lines 15-23)
if resultV, ok := result[expectedK]; ok {
if resultV == nil && expectedV == nil {
continue
}
if *resultV != *expectedV {
return fmt.Errorf("result[%s]: %s != expected[%s]: %s", expectedK, *resultV, expectedK, *expectedV)
}
The code above demonstrates the vulnerable pattern. This code is executed at runtime and can be directly exploited by an attacker with the appropriate access level.
Provide a crafted map where a key exists in the result map with a nil *string value while the expected map has a non-nil value for the same key, causing a panic when MapEq dereferences the nil pointer.
Denial of Service via panic and potential crash of the Terraform provider process.
Add a nil check before dereferencing resultV, e.g., if resultV == nil || expectedV == nil { handle accordingly } before comparing the underlying strings.
Advisory: SGZ-2026-0CB06 | Source: SafeGuard Zero-Day AI Discovery | Status: Candidate
This vulnerability was autonomously discovered by SafeGuard's AI-powered Zero-Day Discovery engine using TAOR (Think-Act-Observe-Repeat) agentic analysis on the package source code. It is not yet tracked in any public vulnerability database (CVE, NVD, GHSA, OSV). This finding should be triaged by a security engineer and, if confirmed, reported upstream to the package maintainer.
