CVE-2026-95698 Details
Description
The findOrgImage method in MISP's OrgImgHelper constructs a filesystem path by concatenating a user-supplied organization identifier with a fixed image directory and a file extension, then calls file_exists() on the resulting path. The organization name field is attacker-controllable through event import, which sets Org.name. Because no validation was performed on the field value before path construction, an organization name containing directory traversal sequences (e.g., ../../etc/passwd) would cause the path to resolve outside the intended org-image directory. This yields two security impacts: - an arbitrary file existence oracle, since file_exists() returns a boolean for any path the process can access. - an arbitrary file read limited to files with .png or .svg extensions, because the resolved filename is returned and subsequently rendered or served to the requesting user. The vulnerability requires an authenticated user with the ability to create or import events that set the organization name.
A path traversal vulnerability has been identified in the 'findOrgImage' method of MISP's OrgImgHelper. The issue arises because the method constructs a filesystem path by combining a user-supplied organization identifier with a fixed image directory and a file extension. It then checks for the existence of the file at the constructed path. The vulnerability allows an authenticated user to exploit the 'Org.name' field, which can be manipulated during event import, to include directory traversal sequences. This could lead to two security issues: an arbitrary file existence check, as 'file_exists()' returns a boolean for any accessible path, and an arbitrary file read capability, restricted to files with .png or .svg extensions, since the resolved filename is returned and rendered or served to the user.
Users should update to MISP version 2.5.47, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
