An improper authorization vulnerability in MISP allowed an authenticated organization administrator to access or modify user settings belonging to site administrator accounts within the same organization. The affected access-control checks scoped administrative actions by organization membership but did not exclude higher-privileged site administrator users. As a result, an organization administrator could potentially view or alter site administrator user settings and related login profile information, crossing the intended privilege boundary between organization administration and site-wide administration. The patch hardens the ACL logic by excluding site administrator accounts from organization administrator–managed user sets, adding explicit authorization failure when a target user is not administrable, and ensuring user setting and login profile operations fail closed.

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.

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.

Concrete CMS 9.5.0 and below is vulnerable to missing authorization in the bulk_user_assignment.php which can lead to privilege escalation to Administrative Group. Any authenticated user with access to the bulk user assignment dashboard page can add any user email to any group and can remove legitimate admins. The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v.4.0 score of 7.5 with vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N.
