CVE-2026-61474 Details
Description
An improper authorization check in MISP’s attribute creation endpoint allowed an authenticated user with permission to add attributes to submit a sharing_group_id without triggering the corresponding sharing group authorization check, as long as the attribute distribution value was not explicitly set to 4 — “sharing group”. As a result, a user could reference or associate an attribute with a sharing group they were not authorized to use. This could lead to an access-control bypass affecting the integrity of attribute sharing metadata and potentially expose or misuse restricted sharing group relationships. The patch changes the authorization logic so that the sharing group permission check is performed whenever a non-empty sharing_group_id is provided, regardless of the selected distribution value.
A vulnerability exists in MISP's attribute creation endpoint due to an improper authorization check. Authenticated users with permission to add attributes could submit a sharing_group_id without undergoing the necessary authorization verification, as long as the attribute distribution value was not set to 'sharing group'. This flaw could enable users to reference or associate attributes with unauthorized sharing groups, bypassing access controls and potentially misusing restricted sharing group relationships. The vulnerability affects MISP versions prior to the patch implemented on July 9, 2026.
Users can update to the latest version of MISP, where this vulnerability has been addressed, to ensure proper authorization checks are enforced for sharing group IDs.
