Advisory Summary

CVE-2026-10861 is a MODERATE (CVSS 6.1) security vulnerability vulnerability (CWE-601: URL Redirection to Untrusted Site ('Open Redirect')) affecting Software libraries in the Maven ecosystem. The weakness occurs when the web application accepts a user-controlled input that specifies a link to an external site, and uses that link in a redirect.. Remediation is available in the latest vendor maintenance releases.

How to Fix CVE-2026-10861

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-2026-10861, 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-601: URL Redirection to Untrusted Site ('Open Redirect'), where the web application accepts a user-controlled input that specifies a link to an external site, and uses that link in a redirect. 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

An open redirect vulnerability existed in MISP UsersController::routeafterlogin() because the value stored in the pre_login_requested_url session key was used as the post-login redirect destination without sufficiently enforcing that it was a local application path. An unauthenticated remote attacker could craft a link that causes a victim to visit a trusted MISP instance and, after successful authentication, be redirected to an attacker-controlled external URL. This could be abused to increase the credibility of phishing attacks, redirect users to counterfeit login pages, or deliver attacker-controlled content from an untrusted domain. CWE-601 describes this weakness as accepting user-controlled input that specifies an external link and using it in a redirect, with phishing as a common consequence. The patch mitigates the issue by decoding and parsing the URL, rejecting URLs with a scheme, host, user component, missing or non-local path, and protocol-relative forms such as //example.com and /\example.com.
