Critical CVSS 9

A mass assignment vulnerability exists in the MISP user edit functionality due to insufficient filtering of user-supplied fields in UsersController::edit(). When processing edit requests, the application accepted a user-controlled User.id value from request data. An authenticated attacker could craft a modified request containing another user identifier, potentially causing updates to be applied to an unintended user account. Depending on the editable fields and the attacker’s privileges, this could allow unauthorized modification of user account attributes and impact account integrity. The issue was addressed by explicitly removing the User.id field from request data before processing the user edit operation.

Privilege escalation and unsafe privilege management

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

Check exposure

  • Map service accounts, operating-system identities, roles, capabilities, impersonation, set-user transitions, and administrative helper paths.
  • Determine whether untrusted users or lower-privilege processes can reach the affected transition or modify inputs it trusts.
  • Review file, socket, registry, device, job, container, and cloud-role permissions used before and after privilege changes.

Remediate safely

  • Apply the supported fix and redesign privileged operations as a minimal, authenticated, allowlisted interface.
  • Drop privileges before processing untrusted input, verify the drop succeeds, and remove unnecessary roles, capabilities, and write permissions.
  • Validate ownership and permissions at time of use and add explicit lower-to-higher privilege boundary tests.
