Description
MISP modules are autonomous modules that can be used to extend MISP for new services. Prior to 3.0.7, an unsafe remote resource fetching vulnerability existed in MISP Modules expansion modules. The html_to_markdown module accepted arbitrary HTTP(S) URLs without sufficient validation, which could allow Server-Side Request Forgery against loopback, private, or link-local network resources. Additionally, the qrcode module disabled TLS certificate verification when retrieving remote images, exposing requests to potential man-in-the-middle interception or response tampering. The issue was fixed by validating URL schemes, blocking local and private address ranges, resolving hostnames before fetching, enforcing request timeouts, and re-enabling TLS certificate verification. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.0.7.

Impact

The html_to_markdown module accepted arbitrary HTTP(S) URLs without validating the scheme or the target address, enabling a server‑side request forgery (SSRF) that could reach loopback, private, or link‑local network resources. Additionally, the qrcode module disabled TLS certificate verification when retrieving remote images, exposing these requests to man‑in‑the‑middle attacks. Together, an attacker who can supply input to these modules may cause the MISP server to fetch internal resources or capture tampered responses, compromising confidentiality and integrity.

Affected Systems

All MISP module releases before 3.0.7 are affected, including the html_to_markdown and qrcode modules. The vulnerability is specific to the MISP:misp-modules package and its expansion modules.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 5.8 indicates moderate severity. No EPSS score is available, and the vulnerability is not listed in the KEV catalog. Exploitation would require an attacker able to supply URLs to the vulnerable modules, which is typically possible through unauthenticated or privileged access to MISP event inputs or module configuration. The likely attack vector is a remote attacker controlling the module input. Once exploited, the attacker may access internal network resources or tamper with external images received by the server.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade MISP modules to version 3.0.7 or later, which includes validation of URL schemes, blocking of local address ranges, hostname resolution, request timeouts, and re‑enabled TLS certificate verification.
  • Restrict usage of the html_to_markdown and qrcode modules to authenticated administrators or trusted users, and consider disabling or quarantining any modules that accept untrusted input.
  • Enforce network segmentation or firewall rules to block outgoing connections from the MISP server to loopback, private, or link‑local address ranges, and enforce TLS verification for all external requests.
