EUVDB-ID: #VU35833

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 5.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-12794

CWE-ID: CWE-255 - Credentials Management

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote privileged user to execute arbitrary code.

An issue was discovered in MISP 2.4.108. Organization admins could reset credentials for site admins (organization admins have the inherent ability to reset passwords for all of their organization's users). This, however, could be abused in a situation where the host organization of an instance creates organization admins. An organization admin could set a password manually for the site admin or simply use the API key of the site admin to impersonate them. The potential for abuse only occurs when the host organization creates lower-privilege organization admins instead of the usual site admins. Also, only organization admins of the same organization as the site admin could abuse this.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.
