CVE-2026-54394 — MISP contains a path traversal vulnerability in OrganisationsController::getOrgLogo

Medium CVSS 5.3

MISP contains a path traversal vulnerability in OrganisationsController::getOrgLogo. The vulnerable code builds organisation logo file paths using organisation-controlled fields such as id, name, and uuid without ensuring that the resolved file remains inside the intended APP/files/img/orgs/ directory. An attacker able to influence an organisation field, for example the organisation name, could use path traversal sequences to cause MISP to return arbitrary readable .png or .svg files from outside the organisation logo directory. The issue is fixed by resolving candidate paths with realpath() and verifying that they remain under the expected base directory before serving the file.

Matched remediation archetype

Path traversal, unsafe upload, and file handling

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

Check exposure

  • Trace untrusted filenames, archive entries, URLs, and path segments into read, write, include, extraction, and upload operations.
  • Identify filesystem roots, mount permissions, symbolic-link behavior, archive handling, and whether uploaded content is web-accessible or executable.
  • Review canonicalization and containment checks across supported operating systems and storage backends.

Remediate safely

  • Generate server-side storage identifiers and resolve paths beneath a fixed root using filesystem-aware containment checks.
  • Reject absolute, parent-relative, alternate-separator, device, link, and archive entries that escape the intended root.
  • Store uploads outside executable or served paths, validate type and size, and use private atomic temporary files.
