CVE-2026-103662
MISP Reflected XSS in Taxonomy Tag Confirmation Forms
Description
MISP contains a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the legacy taxonomy tag management confirmation forms (add tag and disable tag). The affected forms echoed a user-supplied tag name value from the request unescaped into the rendered HTML output. An attacker who can induce a site administrator to visit a crafted URL containing a malicious tag name parameter can execute arbitrary JavaScript in the administrator's browser session. Preconditions: - The target must be running a MISP instance with the legacy taxonomy tag confirmation views enabled. - The victim must be an authenticated site administrator. - The victim must navigate to the attacker-crafted URL (e.g., via a phishing link). Security impact: - Execution of arbitrary client-side script in the context of the administrator's browser. - Potential theft of session tokens, CSRF tokens, or other sensitive data accessible from the page. - Potential for performing privileged actions on behalf of the administrator within the MISP interface. Affected versions: <2.5.48.
