CVE-2026-54358 Details
Description
An incorrect authorization vulnerability in MISP allows an organization administrator to target site administrator accounts belonging to the same organization through the administrative email functionality. The affected code restricted organization administrators to users within their own organization, but did not exclude accounts assigned a site administrator role from recipient queries. As a result, an organization administrator could perform privileged account-management actions, such as initiating a password reset workflow, against a higher-privileged site administrator account in the same organization. Successful exploitation may allow an authenticated organization administrator to interfere with or potentially take over a site administrator account, resulting in privilege escalation and full compromise of the MISP instance’s confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Attack prerequisites: The attacker must be authenticated as an organization administrator in the same organization as a site administrator account.
A vulnerability in MISP allows organization administrators to improperly target site administrators within the same organization using the administrative email feature. The issue arises because the code, while restricting organization admins to users in their own organization, fails to exclude site administrators from recipient queries. This oversight enables organization admins to execute privileged account-management actions, such as resetting passwords, on site administrators. Exploiting this vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access and control over the site administrator's account, with a full compromise of the MISP instance's confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Users can update to MISP version 2.5.40, which includes a fix for this vulnerability.
