How to Fix CVE-2026-10856

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-2026-10856, 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

A URL validation flaw in the MISP dashboard button widget allowed a crafted relative-looking URL to be accepted as a local path while being interpreted by browsers as an external URL. The validation rejected URLs containing an explicit scheme, host, or user component, but did not reject paths beginning with a slash followed by a backslash, such as /\example.com. Some browsers normalize backslashes in URLs as forward slashes, which can turn this into a scheme-relative external navigation target. In addition, the generated href concatenated the reconstructed URL with the original URL, increasing the possibility of unsafe or malformed link generation. An attacker able to configure or influence a dashboard button URL could craft a button that appears to point inside the application but redirects users to an attacker-controlled site when clicked. This could be used for phishing, credential theft, or social engineering. The patch fixes the issue by rejecting empty paths and paths starting with /\, and by emitting only the reconstructed validated URL in the anchor href.
