| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Advisory ID | SGZ-2026-0FF39 |
| Severity | MEDIUM |
| CWE | CWE-690 |
| Confidence | 94% |
| Category | logic_flaw |
| Exploitability | likely |
| Package | github.com/example/kafka@latest (golang) |
| Location | kafka/utils.go:34-38 |
| Attack Vector | NETWORK |
| Attack Complexity | LOW |
| Privileges Required | NONE |
| Discovered By | SafeGuard Zero-Day AI Discovery Engine |
The strPtrMapToStrMap function dereferences each map value without checking for nil. If the input map contains a nil *string, the function will panic, leading to a denial-of-service condition.
The vulnerability was identified in the file kafka/utils.go at lines 34-38 within the github.com/example/kafka package (version latest). Any code path that invokes these functions inherits this vulnerability.
File: kafka/utils.go (lines 34-38)
for k, v := range c {
foo[k] = *v
}
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.
Pass a map[string]*string where at least one entry has a nil pointer value to cause a panic when the function iterates and dereferences it.
Denial of Service via panic, potentially crashing the provider or application using this utility.
Check if v is nil before dereferencing; assign a default value or return an error when nil is encountered.
Advisory: SGZ-2026-0FF39 | 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.
