CVE-2026-10868 — MISP: critical mass-assignment account-takeover in the EU threat-sharing platform

discovered 2026-06-06 05:00 UTCrun 2026-06-06-d01b95fe2 sourcesmulti-source

BSI published WID-SEC-2026-1800 covering seven vulnerabilities in MISP, the open-source threat-intelligence sharing platform that underpins CERT-EU, GovCERT.ch, CIRCL.lu and most EU national-CERT and ISAC feeds (BSI CERT-Bund, 2026-06-04; GitHub Security Advisory, 2026-06-04). The most severe, CVE-2026-10868 (CVSS 9.0), is a mass-assignment bug in UsersController::edit(): insufficient field filtering lets an authenticated user inject another account's identifier into the edit request, so the update is applied to an unintended account (T1078 Valid Accounts / account manipulation) — an authenticated account-takeover and privilege-manipulation primitive. The other six (CVE-2026-10854/10855/10856/10860/10861/10864) cover access-control bypass on private galaxy metadata, an org-crossing event-template overwrite, and an open redirect. In a multi-organisation sharing hub the account-takeover combined with the cross-org template overwrite enables manipulation of the shared indicator pool itself. Patches shipped 2026-06-04; the CVE-2026-10868 fix explicitly strips the User.id field before edit processing. Detection concepts: review MISP access logs for UsersController::edit POSTs where the posted user id differs from the session user id, and audit user accounts for unexpected role/group attribute changes.

Defender actions

  • Patch MISP instances to the 2026-06-04 release (. Multi-org sharing hubs are highest-priority given the account-takeover + cross-org template-overwrite combination. Pre-patch, monitor UsersController::edit requests where the posted user id ≠ session user id.

ATT&CK mapping

Initial Access TA0001
T1078Valid Accounts

Adversaries may obtain and abuse credentials of existing accounts as a means of gaining Initial Access, Persistence, Privilege Escalation, or Defense Evasion. Compromised credentials may be used to bypass access controls placed on various resources on systems within the network and may even be used for persistent access to remote systems and externally available services, such as VPNs, Outlook Web Access, network devices, and remote desktop. Compromised credentials may also grant an adversary increased privilege to specific systems or access to restricted areas of the network. Adversaries may choose not to use malware or tools in conjunction with the legitimate access those credentials provide to make it harder to detect their presence.
