CVE-2026-86283 PUBLISHED

MISP UiBeta Collection View Bypasses Event ACL, Exposing Unauthorized Event Data

Assigner: CIRCL
Reserved: 06.09.2026 Published: 06.09.2026 Updated: 06.09.2026

MISP's UiBeta theme collection view (app/View/Themed/UiBeta/Collections/view.ctp) performed a secondary query of member events by UUID without applying the caller's access control list (ACL). The CollectionsController::view() action correctly resolved collection element UUIDs through Event::fetchSimpleEvents($user, ...), which enforces per-user event ACL. However, the view template independently re-queried the same UUIDs using only an Event.uuid IN (...) condition, omitting the createEventConditions() authorization filter. Because collection element UUIDs are stored without server-side authorization against the referenced event (CollectionElementsController::add() accepts whatever UUID the collection owner posts), an authenticated user with view access to a collection could retrieve full details of events they are not permitted to read. The exposed data included event identifiers, info, dates, timestamps, creator organization, all event tags, and galaxy clusters (the latter attached via a cluster-scoped rather than event-scoped ACL check). This constitutes an authorization bypass at the presentation layer, allowing horizontal privilege escalation across event boundaries within the MISP instance.

Solutions

The view template now retrieves the authenticated user object and applies Event::createEventConditions($me) to the secondary event query, ensuring the same per-user ACL that the controller enforces is also applied at the view layer. The galaxy cluster attachment call was also updated to use the same authenticated user reference, closing the cluster-scoped ACL gap.
