CVE-2026-91825: MISP: Missing Authorization Check for Event Sharing Group When Distribution Field Is Omitted During Edit

Is it exploited?

Not on CISA's list. CISA has not added it to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog as of 29 Oct 2026. If CISA adds it, this page shows it as known exploited.

How likely is exploitation in the next 30 days?

0.4%

EPSS score, percentile 33 of all scored records. A probability estimated by FIRST, not a report of exploitation.

How severe?

7.1 High

CVSS v4.0 base score, given by the CNA

What should I do?

The fix adds an explicit authorization check for the sharing_group_id in the code path where the distribution field is omitted from the edit request. Full textSolution from the CVE record.

CISA has set no required action, because the vulnerability is not in KEV.

What to do

Solution (from the CVE record)

The fix adds an explicit authorization check for the sharing_group_id in the code path where the distribution field is omitted from the edit request. In the controller, if no distribution is submitted but a sharing_group_id is present and differs from the stored value, the user's access to that sharing group is verified via checkIfCanBeUsed before the edit proceeds. In the model's _edit method, a parallel check via checkIfAuthorised is added for the same condition, returning an error if the user is not authorized for the submitted sharing group. This closes the gap where omitting the distribution field bypassed the existing authorization gate.

About this vulnerability

Affected versions of MISP fail to authorize a submitted sharing group in a specific event-edit path. The vulnerable logic checked whether the acting user could use a sharing_group_id only when the request explicitly supplied distribution = 4. If the attacker instead omitted distribution but supplied a different sharing_group_id, that authorization branch was skipped. Later, MISP’s field-recover…

Description

MISP: Missing Authorization Check for Event Sharing Group When Distribution Field Is Omitted During Edit

Affected versions of MISP fail to authorize a submitted sharing group in a specific event-edit path. The vulnerable logic checked whether the acting user could use a sharing_group_id only when the request explicitly supplied distribution = 4. If the attacker instead omitted distribution but supplied a different sharing_group_id, that authorization branch was skipped. Later, MISP’s field-recovery logic restored the existing event distribution from storage. For events already configured with sharing-group distribution, the unauthorized sharing-group ID could therefore be saved. The fix adds authorization checks in both the controller and Event::_edit() whenever a non-empty sharing_group_id is supplied without distribution. The model now calls SharingGroup::checkIfAuthorised() before persisting the change. Version affected: ≤2.5.45
