Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in MISP up to 2.5.46. It has been declared as critical. This vulnerability affects the function unserialize of the component Phar Stream Wrapper. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a deserialization vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-502. The product deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently verifying that the resulting data will be valid. As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

MISP ships with PHP's phar stream wrapper registered in both its web entry point and its console entry point.  The phar stream wrapper causes PHP to treat a phar archive as a directory, which has two security consequences:    - any filesystem operation on a caller-influenced path that resolves to a phar archive triggers an implicit unserialize() call, creating a deserialization sink;  - a relocated application root can reach executable code inside an uploaded phar file, enabling arbitrary code execution as the web user. No component of MISP, the vendored CakePHP framework, or any runtime-loaded library reads or constructs phar archives. The wrapper therefore serves no legitimate purpose in the MISP runtime and exists solely as an available primitive for an attacker who can influence a filesystem path argument.

The advisory is shared for download at github.com. This vulnerability was named CVE-2026-95806 since 09/22/2026. The exploitation appears to be easy. The attack can be initiated remotely. There are known technical details, but no exploit is available.

Upgrading to version 2.5.47 eliminates this vulnerability. Applying the patch 08fa755b6 is able to eliminate this problem. The best possible mitigation is suggested to be upgrading to the latest version.
