Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-12649)

CWE-ID: CWE-307 - Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.

An issue was discovered in app/Controller/UsersController.php in MISP 2.4.92. An adversary can bypass the brute-force protection by using a PUT HTTP method instead of a POST HTTP method in the login part, because this protection was only covering POST requests.
