Overview

CVE-2019-12794 is a medium-severity vulnerability. It was published on June 11, 2019 and has a CVSS 3.0 base score of 6.6 (MEDIUM).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.0 base score of 6.6, rated MEDIUM. It can be exploited remotely over the network. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical description

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.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
