Description
An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the MISP AuthKey edit functionality. When a validation error occurs during an AuthKey edit request, the user dropdown was populated using the attacker-controlled AuthKey.user_id value from the submitted request data. An authenticated user with permission to edit an AuthKey could submit arbitrary user IDs and observe the returned dropdown data, allowing enumeration of user email addresses. The issue is fixed by deriving the dropdown user from the persisted AuthKey owner instead of the request body.

AI Analysis

Impact

An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the AuthKey edit feature of the MISP platform. When an AuthKey update fails validation, the dropdown of available users is populated using the user_id field from the request payload, which an attacker can control. This flaw allows an authenticated user who has permission to edit AuthKey entries to submit arbitrary user IDs and see the resulting dropdown data, directly revealing the email addresses of all users.

Affected Systems

Affect any deployment of the MISP platform (misp:misp) that uses the AuthKey edit endpoint. No specific affected versions are listed, so installations in all released versions are potentially vulnerable until the fix is applied.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 5.3 indicates moderate severity. The EPSS score is not available and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Exploitation requires an authenticated user with permission to edit AuthKey entries, limiting the attacker’s ability to enumerate users. Nevertheless, the revealed email addresses may facilitate further social engineering or targeted attacks.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the MISP update that changes the AuthKey edit dropdown logic to use the persisted AuthKey owner instead of the request body, as detailed in commit 42737f4e88df801486334690913dd344e447fac3.
  • Limit AuthKey edit permissions to a trusted set of administrators, removing write access for normal users to reduce the opportunity for enumeration.
  • Disable or sanitize error responses during AuthKey edits so that user IDs and email addresses are not disclosed in validation error messages or logs.
