Overview

CVE-2026-91846 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on September 15, 2026.

Technical description

Affected versions of MISP allow a collection element to be created from a bare UUID without consistently checking whether the acting user is allowed to access the referenced object.

The commit explains that collection elements themselves only store UUIDs, while the collection view later resolves those UUIDs into their underlying objects. Before this fix, the generic add() path could therefore persist a UUID for an Event or Galaxy Cluster that the caller could not normally read. The patch explicitly notes that this made collections a way to reference another organisation’s private data and had caused disclosure of organisation-only events in the beta collection view.

The fix centralizes authorization in __assertCanUseElements(). Event UUIDs are validated through Event::fetchSimpleEvent() under the current user’s ACL, while Galaxy Cluster UUIDs are checked through GalaxyCluster::fetchGalaxyClusters(). The check is applied both to the CRUD add() path and to addElementToCollection().

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-91846?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine. Rather than flag a version number, it tests whether an issue like CVE-2026-91846 is actually reachable in your own applications and APIs, then verifies each finding before reporting it. That tells you if the weakness is a real, exploitable risk in your environment or a false positive you can safely deprioritize.
