CVE-2026-103389: MISP Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Unvalidated Galaxy Icon Field in Correlation Graph
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 24/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.30% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: MISP MISP 2.5.48.
- Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).
Low priority for now. Upgrade to MISP MISP 2.5.48 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
MISP contains a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the galaxy icon handling path. The icon field of a galaxy object was persisted without any server-side validation through the galaxy add, edit, and sync/import capture endpoints. The stored value was subsequently concatenated directly into HTML markup by the D3-based correlation graph rendering scripts (both the default and Overmind themes) using the .html() method. A user holding the perm_galaxy_editor permission, which is granted to the stock User role, could store arbitrary HTML or JavaScript in the icon field. Any other user who opened the correlation graph of an event containing a cluster belonging to that galaxy would have the injected script executed in their browser session. Impact: - Arbitrary script execution in the context of the victim's MISP session - Potential theft of session credentials, manipulation of displayed data, or initiation of actions on behalf of the victim - Affects both the default and Overmind UI themes Affected versions: <2.5.48
