Security Vulnerabilities
Affected versions of MISP permit unauthenticated or weakly constrained request paths to perform persistent work without adequate input bounds or rate limiting.
The users/forgot password-reset endpoint accepted an attacker-controlled email value without first imposing a reasonable length bound or validating its format. That value was then used to create an audit log entry and queue a password-reset job, causing the supplied value to be persisted more than once per request. The commit explicitly states that an unbounded unauthenticated request field was stored twice per call with no throttle.
The fix adds:
- a maximum email input length of 1024 bytes;
- email-format validation before persistent work;
- a per-source pre-authentication request budget;
- HTTP 429 responses when that budget is exceeded;
- a 15-minute cooldown for API-access request emails;
- POST-only handling and CSRF protection for the API-access request endpoint.
The new flood filter is specifically intended to limit persistent storage costs from anonymous requests such as password resets, registrations, and failed REST authentication attempts.

Affected versions of MISP insufficiently validate URLs used by dashboard widgets, particularly the Button widget.
The widget's URL is stored configuration controlled by a user. The previous renderer considered a URL safe if it appeared relative or if its parsed hostname matched the configured MISP hostname. That logic failed to reject dangerous schemes and URL forms that browsers normalize differently from PHP's URL parsing.
As a result, values such as javascript: URLs or backslash-based authority forms could reach the generated anchor's href and execute script or navigate to an attacker-controlled origin when another user interacted with the widget. The upstream commit describes the issue as:
“javascript: and backslash URLs reached the href (stored XSS)”.
The fix routes widget URLs through a shared DashboardURLValidator, rejects dangerous schemes, raw backslashes, control characters, and unauthorized absolute origins, and validates the URL both in the widget handler and renderer.
