How to Fix CVE-2026-104907

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Software dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

mvn dependency:tree

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2026-104907, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Software in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than the patched release), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree command inspects the resolved dependency graph declared in your project's POM files; it does not perform automated security scanning or inspect runtime dynamic classpaths. Always verify runtime container classpaths and shaded JARs.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting'), where the product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output that is used as a web page that is served to other users. In Software, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

MISP contains a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the remote event preview page. When a linked (remote) MISP server is configured, the event preview renders tag identifiers inside an inline JavaScript onclick attribute. The tag ID value was HTML-escaped but not sanitized for the JavaScript string context, meaning a malicious linked server could supply a tag ID containing characters (such as a single quote) that break out of the JavaScript string literal and inject arbitrary script. Preconditions: - A linked/remote MISP server is configured and connected to the local instance. - The linked server supplies a crafted tag ID in an event. - An authenticated user views the event preview and interacts with the affected tag element. Impact: - Arbitrary JavaScript execution in the context of the viewing user's browser session, potentially allowing session hijacking, data exfiltration, or unauthorized actions on behalf of the user. Affected versions: MISP prior to the fix commit (v2.5.48 or later, exact boundary unconfirmed).
