CVE-2026-10855 — An authorization flaw existed in the MISP Event Template Importer overwrite workflow

Medium CVSS 5.1

An authorization flaw existed in the MISP Event Template Importer overwrite workflow. When importing an event template in overwrite mode, the application checked whether a matching template already existed but did not verify that the importing user belonged to the organization that owned the existing template. As a result, an authenticated user with access to the template import functionality could forcibly overwrite an event template owned by another organization. Successful exploitation could allow unauthorized modification of another organization’s event template, potentially altering template structure, attributes, or metadata used for subsequent event creation or sharing workflows. Site administrators are not affected by this restriction, as they are explicitly allowed to overwrite templates across organizations. The issue was fixed by enforcing an ownership check before overwrite: non-site-admin users may only overwrite templates owned by their own organization.

Authorization bypass, IDOR, and cross-tenant access

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Map object and action authorization checks across API, UI, batch, import/export, and background-job paths.
  • Identify tenant, ownership, role, and policy boundaries for affected resources and administrative operations.
  • Use synthetic fixtures to compare intended access matrices without accessing another user's real data.

Remediate safely

  • Enforce server-side authorization at each resource access and state transition using the authenticated principal and trusted tenant context.
  • Scope data queries by tenant and ownership; treat client-supplied identifiers, roles, and policy claims as untrusted.
  • Add deny-by-default policy tests for horizontal and vertical access across every affected transport.
