Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in MISP up to 2.5.46. It has been classified as problematic. Affected is an unknown code block of the file event_general.ctp of the component Overmind Theme. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a cross site scripting vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-79. The product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output that is used as a web page that is served to other users. This is going to have an impact on integrity. CVE summarizes:

MISP contains a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Overmind theme's statistics views. The event General card (event_general.ctp) and the server/feed preview card (preview_general.ctp) constructed donut chart legend labels by directly concatenating object name or category keys into an innerHTML string without HTML-encoding. Because MISP object names (e.g., attribute names, event names, or server/feed identifiers) are user-controllable by any authenticated user with sufficient permissions to create or modify such objects, an attacker could craft a name containing malicious markup (for example, a script tag or event-handler attribute). When any other user viewed the affected Overmind dashboard, the injected markup would be interpreted as live HTML/JavaScript in the victim's browser, executing in the context of the MISP application origin. This could allow session hijacking, data exfiltration, or arbitrary actions performed on behalf of the victim. The vulnerability requires the attacker to have low-level authenticated access to create or rename an object whose name is rendered in the legend, and the victim to view the Overmind event or server preview page. No special browser conditions or race conditions are required.

The advisory is shared for download at github.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2026-93296 since 09/17/2026. The exploitability is told to be easy.
