CVE-2026-85227
MediumCVSS 6.1Summary
MISP contains a reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the event attribute filtering query builder. The taggedAttributes and galaxyAttachedAttributes URL parameters were inserted into the query-builder rules without HTML escaping before being serialized as JSON and embedded inside a <script> element.
Risk Assessment
An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by convincing an authenticated MISP user to follow a crafted URL. Successful exploitation would execute attacker-controlled JavaScript in the security context of the MISP instance and with the privileges of the victim's authenticated browser session, potentially allowing access to information, modification of data, or other actions permitted by the victim's MISP permissions.
Recommendation
Update MISP to a version that applies HTML escaping with h() to both scalar and array values before they are inserted into the DOM. Additionally, educate users about the risks of clicking suspicious links.
Other vulnerabilities in MISP
See all- CVE-2026-85239High
A vulnerability in MISP allows an authenticated user with permission to create or modify event templates to bypass validation of the template definition field. By supplying a pre-encoded string instead of an array structure, an invalid definition can be persistently stored. On retrieval, invalid JSON triggers an exception, causing HTTP 500 errors in event template functionality.
- CVE-2026-85238High
MISP contains a session fixation vulnerability in the CustomAuth authentication flow. After successful authentication via CustomAuth, MISP stores the authenticated user identity in the existing session without first rotating the session identifier. An attacker who knows the victim's session identifier before authentication can later reuse it to access the victim's authenticated session.
- CVE-2026-85237High
A vulnerability in MISP's email-based one-time password (OTP) authentication flow allowed an attacker to perform an unrestricted number of OTP verification attempts. The email_otp() endpoint did not apply brute-force protection, enabling repeated guessing of OTP and potential bypass of the additional authentication factor.
- CVE-2026-85236High
A cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability existed in the cullEmptyEvents action of MISP. The endpoint performed a state-changing and irreversible operation while accepting HTTP GET requests. An attacker could cause an authenticated user with sufficient privileges to invoke the endpoint, leading to deletion of published empty events.
- CVE-2026-85226Medium
MISP contains an authorization flaw in the OnDemand correlation engine where correlations were calculated solely from matching attribute values without applying the distribution, sharing group, organization, or other access-control restrictions associated with the correlated attributes and events. As a result, an authenticated user could receive correlation results referring to attributes or events that the user was not authorized to access.
- CVE-2026-61474Medium
An improper authorization check in MISP's attribute creation endpoint allowed an authenticated user with permission to add attributes to submit a sharing_group_id without triggering the corresponding sharing group authorization check, as long as the attribute distribution value was not explicitly set to 4 — 'sharing group'.
- CVE-2017-14337High
In MISP versions before 2.4.80, when configured with X.509 certificate authentication alongside a non-MISP external user management API, an unauthenticated user can gain access as an arbitrary user if the API returns an empty value.
- CVE-2026-85216Critical
MISP contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in its LDAP and LinOTP authentication components due to insufficient validation of user-supplied credentials. An attacker knowing a valid directory user's email address could submit an empty password, which may be accepted by an LDAP server allowing unauthenticated binds. Additionally, in the LinOTP component, empty passwords could be checked against local MISP password hashes, and LDAP-provisioned accounts could be created with empty local passwords.
- CVE-2026-10868Critical
MISP has a mass assignment vulnerability in the user edit functionality (UsersController::edit()). An authenticated attacker can modify the user ID in the request, leading to updates on another user's account.
- CVE-2026-10611Critical
MISP contains an authentication bypass vulnerability when LDAP mixed authentication is enabled with OTP enforcement. An authenticated user can bypass the OTP step and access the application without providing a TOTP, HOTP, or email OTP code.
Original NVD description (English source)
MISP contains a reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the event attribute filtering query builder. The taggedAttributes and galaxyAttachedAttributes URL parameters were inserted into the query-builder rules without HTML escaping before being serialized as JSON and embedded inside a <script> element. Because JsonTool::encode() uses JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES, an attacker-controlled value containing a closing </script> sequence could terminate the surrounding script element and inject arbitrary HTML or JavaScript. For example, a specially crafted viewEventAttributes URL could contain malicious content in one of the affected filter parameters. An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by convincing an authenticated MISP user to follow a crafted URL. Successful exploitation would execute attacker-controlled JavaScript in the security context of the MISP instance and with the privileges of the victim's authenticated browser session. This could allow access to information available to the victim, modification of data through authenticated requests, or other actions permitted by the victim's MISP permissions. The vulnerability is addressed by applying HTML escaping with h() to both scalar and array values before they are inserted into the DOM.
