Advisory Summary

CVE-2026-103389 is a MODERATE security vulnerability vulnerability (CWE-20: Improper Input Validation) affecting Software libraries in the Maven ecosystem. The weakness occurs when the product receives input or data, but it does not validate or incorrectly validates that the input has the properties that are required to process the data safely and correctly.. Remediation is available in the latest vendor maintenance releases.

How to Fix CVE-2026-103389

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-2026-103389, 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-20: Improper Input Validation, where the product receives input or data, but it does not validate or incorrectly validates that the input has the properties that are required to process the data safely and correctly. 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 stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the galaxy icon handling path. The icon field of a galaxy object was persisted without any server-side validation through the galaxy add, edit, and sync/import capture endpoints. The stored value was subsequently concatenated directly into HTML markup by the D3-based correlation graph rendering scripts (both the default and Overmind themes) using the .html() method. A user holding the perm_galaxy_editor permission, which is granted to the stock User role, could store arbitrary HTML or JavaScript in the icon field. Any other user who opened the correlation graph of an event containing a cluster belonging to that galaxy would have the injected script executed in their browser session. Impact: - Arbitrary script execution in the context of the victim's MISP session - Potential theft of session credentials, manipulation of displayed data, or initiation of actions on behalf of the victim - Affects both the default and Overmind UI themes Affected versions: <2.5.48
