CVE intelligence and bounded remediation

CVE-2026-44381 — MISP is an open source threat intelligence and sharing platform

Critical CVSS 9.3

MISP is an open source threat intelligence and sharing platform. Prior to 2.5.37, a SQL injection vulnerability existed in the handling of user-controlled ordering parameters in the event and shadow attribute listing endpoints. The affected code accepted order or sort values from request parameters and incorporated them into database query ordering clauses without sufficient validation of the requested field name. An attacker with access to the affected endpoints could craft a malicious ordering parameter to manipulate the generated SQL query. Depending on database permissions and query context, this could potentially allow unauthorized access to data, modification of query behavior, or other database-level impact. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.5.37.

SQL and data-query injection

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

Check exposure

  • Trace request, message, file, and stored values into SQL, ORM query fragments, filters, sort expressions, and other data-query languages.
  • Inventory database roles, reachable schemas, multi-tenant boundaries, and whether stacked or administrative operations are enabled.
  • Check both direct queries and second-order use of previously stored values.

Remediate safely

  • Use parameterized queries or safe query builders for all values; map identifiers and operators through explicit allowlists.
  • Remove raw query concatenation and give the application account only the tables and operations it requires.
  • Update affected data-access components and add regression tests for query structure preservation with inert edge-case inputs.
