MISP Incomplete Thread Authorization Allows Unauthorized Read and Post Access to Discussions
What fixes it
- 2.5.48MISPCVE List
A fixed version on one release line is not the upgrade target for every line. Check your exact version and any vendor backports.
Description
MISP contains an incomplete authorization check in the discussion posting functionality. When a user submits a post to a thread or replies to an existing post, the application only verified whether the target thread was restricted to a single organization (org-only distribution). It did not enforce the full thread access control list, including sharing-group membership and event-level visibility.
As a result, an authenticated user who is outside the relevant sharing group or who does not have visibility on the associated event could:
- Read the thread title and the content of the quoted post
- Submit a new post into the discussion thread
This constitutes both an information disclosure (reading restricted thread and post content) and an integrity issue (injecting content into a thread the user is not authorized to participate in).
