An incorrect authorization vulnerability in MISP allows an organization administrator to target site administrator accounts belonging to the same organization through the administrative email functionality. The affected code restricted organization administrators to users within their own organization, but did not exclude accounts assigned a site administrator role from recipient queries. As a result, an organization administrator could perform privileged account-management actions, such as initiating a password reset workflow, against a higher-privileged site administrator account in the same organization. Successful exploitation may allow an authenticated organization administrator to interfere with or potentially take over a site administrator account, resulting in privilege escalation and full compromise of the MISP instance’s confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Attack prerequisites: The attacker must be authenticated as an organization administrator in the same organization as a site administrator account.

A mass assignment vulnerability exists in MISP’s sharing group creation endpoint. When creating a new sharing group, the controller did not remove a user-supplied id field before saving the submitted data. In CakePHP, supplying a primary key in the save data can cause a create() followed by save() operation to update an existing record instead of creating a new one. An authenticated user with permission to add sharing groups could therefore submit the identifier of an existing sharing group and modify that sharing group without passing the normal edit access-control checks. This may allow the attacker to take over or alter sharing groups they do not otherwise have access to, potentially affecting the confidentiality and integrity of information shared through those groups. Affected component: app/Controller/SharingGroupsController.php, add() action

MISP contained multiple mass assignment vulnerabilities in the handling of collections, tag collections, event delegations, and shadow attributes. Several controller actions accepted user-supplied fields that should have remained server-controlled, including record identifiers and ownership-related fields such as id, org_id, orgc_id, and user_id. An authenticated attacker with access to the affected endpoints could craft requests containing protected fields in order to alter object ownership, redirect an update to another record, overwrite existing event delegation requests, or modify shadow attribute proposals belonging to another organization. This could result in unauthorized modification of MISP objects and, depending on object visibility and sharing configuration, unauthorized access to or transfer of sensitive threat intelligence data. The issue was fixed by explicitly pinning ownership and identity fields to their stored values during edit operations and by removing user-supplied primary keys from create-only save paths. Affected components: * CollectionsController::edit() * EventDelegationsController::delegateEvent() * ShadowAttributesController::edit() * TagCollectionsController::edit()915 * TagCollectionsController::editWithTags() Attack requirements: The attacker must be authenticated and able to reach the affected MISP endpoints. No user interaction is required.

An incorrect visibility condition in the MISP event template builder allowed authenticated non-site-admin users to view galaxies that should not have been visible to their organisation. The custom access-control condition intended to restrict galaxies to those owned by the user’s organisation or distributed beyond it used a PHP comparison expression instead of a query condition. As a result, enabled galaxies, including organisation-only custom galaxies belonging to other organisations, could be exposed in the template builder galaxy list. This could disclose metadata about private galaxy definitions to unauthorised users.

A vulnerability in MISP’s non-REST event editing path allowed an authenticated user with event edit permissions to manipulate the submitted form data and set an event’s sharing_group_id to a sharing group they were not authorized to use. When distribution was set to sharing group distribution, the non-REST save path accepted the submitted sharing_group_id without performing the same sharing group authorization check enforced by the REST edit path. An attacker could exploit this by tampering with the event edit request and assigning an event to an undisclosed or unauthorized sharing group. This could result in unauthorized use of restricted sharing groups, disclosure of the sharing group name in event listings, and unintended modification of the event’s distribution metadata. The issue is fixed by validating that the selected sharing group can be used by the current user when the sharing group is changed, and by clearing sharing_group_id when the event distribution is not set to sharing group distribution.

An authorization flaw in MISP’s object add/edit handling allowed an authenticated user with object editing permissions to assign a MISP object, or attributes contained within an object, to a sharing group that the user was not authorized to use or view. When editing objects, the sharing group validation was performed against the wrong request data structure after object fields had been merged to the top level, causing the check to be bypassed. In addition, attributes embedded in objects were not individually validated for authorized sharing group use. An attacker could craft a request with distribution set to 4 and an arbitrary sharing_group_id, potentially disclosing the existence or name of otherwise non-visible sharing groups and improperly modifying the distribution metadata of objects or contained attributes.

app/Model/Attribute.php in MISP before 2.4.198 ignores an ACL during a GUI attribute search.

app/Controller/UserLoginProfilesController.php in MISP before 2.4.198 does not prevent an org admin from viewing sensitive login fields of another org admin in the same org.

In MISP through 2.4.196, app/Controller/BookmarksController.php does not properly restrict access to bookmarks data in the case where the user is not an org admin.

A vulnerability was identified in the ShadowAttribute proposal creation workflow. The add action accepted user-controlled ShadowAttribute request data without removing the id field before saving the record. Because the underlying framework treats a supplied primary key as an instruction to update an existing record, an authenticated user able to submit shadow attribute proposals could provide the identifier of an existing ShadowAttribute and cause that record to be updated instead of creating a new proposal. This can result in unauthorized modification of existing shadow attributes, potentially affecting proposals associated with events the user should not be able to alter. Depending on deployment configuration and accessible API responses, the issue may also expose or move proposal data across event contexts. The vulnerability is caused by trusting a client-supplied primary key during object creation. The fix removes the id field from incoming ShadowAttribute data before processing, ensuring that the endpoint always creates a new proposal rather than updating an existing one. This has been fixed in MISP 2.5.38.

MISP is an open source threat intelligence and sharing platform. Prior to 2.5.37, an improper access control vulnerability in the authentication key reset functionality allowed an authenticated organization administrator to reset authentication keys belonging to site administrator accounts within the same organization. Because non-site administrators were not explicitly prevented from accessing or resetting site administrator auth keys, an attacker with organization administrator privileges could potentially obtain a newly generated auth key for a higher-privileged account and use it to escalate privileges. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.5.37.

A logic error in the MISP CRUD component delete handler allowed validation failures to be bypassed when requests used the HTTP DELETE method. Due to missing parentheses in the delete condition, the expression was evaluated as ($validationError === null && POST) || DELETE, meaning a DELETE request could proceed even when the delete validation callback had rejected the operation. An authenticated attacker with access to an affected delete endpoint could abuse this flaw to delete records that should have been protected by application-level validation or authorization checks.
