CVE-2026-85226: MISP OnDemand Correlation Engine Missing Access Control Allows Disclosure of Restricted Correlations
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 21/100)
- 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: 0.25% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- No fixed version is recorded, but the references include a patch (commit or PR) link.
- Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).
Low priority for now. See the fix and affected versions sections below.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
MISP contains an authorization flaw in the OnDemand correlation engine where correlations were calculated solely from matching attribute values without applying the distribution, sharing group, organization, or other access-control restrictions associated with the correlated attributes and events. As a result, an authenticated user could receive correlation results referring to attributes or events that the user was not authorized to access. The vulnerable correlation collection path did not take the requesting user into account. The patch changes the correlation collector to accept the current user and filters the resulting attribute identifiers through MISP's existing fetchAttributesSimple() authorization logic, which evaluates event-, attribute-, object-, distribution-, and sharing-group-level restrictions against the live data. The issue also affected paths relying on previously stored correlation data. Because the OnDemand engine does not maintain the stored correlation table, its denormalized access-control information could be stale. The patch therefore validates correlated attribute identifiers against the current ACLs before returning them and additionally applies normal event visibility conditions when retrieving related events. An authenticated low-privileged user could exploit this issue by querying or creating attributes that correlate with restricted MISP content, potentially learning information about otherwise inaccessible events or attributes.
