CVE-2026-54357 Details
Description
An improper authorization vulnerability in MISP allowed an authenticated organization administrator to access or modify user settings belonging to site administrator accounts within the same organization. The affected access-control checks scoped administrative actions by organization membership but did not exclude higher-privileged site administrator users. As a result, an organization administrator could potentially view or alter site administrator user settings and related login profile information, crossing the intended privilege boundary between organization administration and site-wide administration. The patch hardens the ACL logic by excluding site administrator accounts from organization administrator–managed user sets, adding explicit authorization failure when a target user is not administrable, and ensuring user setting and login profile operations fail closed.
A vulnerability exists in MISP that allows authenticated organization administrators to access or modify user settings of site administrators within the same organization. The issue arises because the access control checks for administrative actions by organization membership do not exclude site administrators, who have higher privileges. Consequently, an organization administrator could potentially view or change site administrator user settings and related login profile information, violating the intended separation of privileges between organization and site-wide administration.
Users can update to MISP version 2.5.40, which includes a patch that strengthens the access control logic by excluding site administrator accounts from the user sets managed by organization administrators. The update also ensures that any unauthorized attempts to access or modify site administrator settings are explicitly denied.
