CVE-2026-116372 Details
Description
MISP mispguard is a security filtering proxy that inspects and blocks MISP feed responses based on configured rules. The process_feed_response method in src/mispguard.py was responsible for evaluating feed responses before they reached the MISP instance. The original logic only explicitly handled the case where the HTTP status code was not 200 by passing the response through without filtering, on the assumption that non-200 responses would not carry ingestible event data. However, HTTP 2xx status codes other than 200 (such as 201 Created, 203 Non-Authoritative Information, and 206 Partial Content) were also passed through unfiltered. Because MISP may still ingest content from these responses, a malicious or compromised feed host could return a 203 or 206 status code with arbitrary content, effectively bypassing all of mispguard's filtering rules. This allowed unfiltered or malicious feed data to be ingested into the MISP instance, undermining the security controls that mispguard is designed to enforce. The vulnerability requires the attacker to control or compromise a feed endpoint configured in the MISP instance. No authentication or user interaction is required beyond the feed polling mechanism already in place.
A vulnerability in MISP mispguard, a security filtering proxy, allows for the ingestion of unfiltered or malicious feed data into a MISP instance. This issue arises because the process_feed_response method in src/mispguard.py improperly handled HTTP 2xx status codes other than 200. While the original logic blocked non-200 responses, it failed to filter responses with status codes 201, 203, and 206, which could still contain ingestible event data. As a result, a malicious or compromised feed host could exploit this flaw by returning a 203 or 206 status code with arbitrary content, bypassing all of mispguard's filtering rules. The vulnerability requires control over a feed endpoint configured in the MISP instance, but no additional authentication or user interaction is needed.
Users can update to MISP mispguard version 1.4, which includes a fix for this vulnerability by blocking successful feed responses other than 200.
