What is CVE-2026-104906?

CVE-2026-104906 is MISP TAXII Object Viewer Stored XSS via Unescaped JSON Output. The supplied enrichment data classifies it as Cross-site Scripting mapped to CWE-79 Cross-site Scripting.

Which versions are affected?

Affected product and version evidence is listed in the product table above. Current public advisories should be checked for exact version scope before patch targeting is finalized.

Is there active exploitation?

Active exploitation is not confirmed from current sources for CVE-2026-104906. If exploitation is not confirmed from current sources, teams should document that status and continue monitoring KEV, vendor, and telemetry updates.

No. CVE-2026-104906 is not listed in CISA KEV in the supplied enrichment data. KEV status should be monitored because it can change after initial disclosure or after exploitation becomes publicly confirmed.

Is there a public exploit?

1 public PoC repositories reported; 0 marked weaponized in current dataset. Public exploit or PoC availability should raise triage priority, especially for exposed or business-critical systems.

How can defenders detect it?

Start with web/proxy/WAF logs, application logs, network IDS/IPS where available. Look for vulnerability-class behavior, product errors, suspicious authentication events, exploit probes, and abnormal process activity based only on evidence that applies to the affected product.

How should teams prioritize it?

Prioritize CVE-2026-104906 using CVSS 6.2, EPSS 0%, KEV status, public PoC status, and asset exposure. Internet-facing, privileged, or business-critical deployments should be handled first.

Are workarounds available?

Workarounds are not confirmed from current sources. Fixed-version evidence is listed in the mitigation section above.

Which threat actors are linked publicly?

No public threat actor linkage is confirmed from current sources. Do not attribute exploitation to a threat actor unless the source evidence explicitly supports that linkage.

What should be done in the next 24 hours?

Identify exposed assets running affected vendor/product/version combinations. Prioritize based on EPSS, PoC availability, and external exposure. Search available logs for exploit probes, errors, authentication anomalies, or suspicious child processes matching the vulnerability class. Open remediation tickets with affected assets, owners, evidence status, and detection coverage so decisions are traceable.

CVE-2026-104906 — MISP TAXII Object Viewer Stored XSS via Unescaped JSON Output

MISP contains a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the TAXII object viewer. When displaying a remote TAXII object, the JSON content of string properties was rendered directly into an HTML pre block without HTML-encoding. An attacker who can control or influence the content of a TAXII object (e.g., by publishing a malicious object to a TAXII server that the victim's MISP instance subscribes to) can inject arbitrary HTML or JavaScript that executes in the context of the victim's MISP session. Preconditions: - The victim must be an authenticated MISP user with access to the TAXII object viewer. - The victim must open or view the crafted TAXII object. Impact: - Execution of arbitrary JavaScript in the victim's browser within the MISP application context. - Potential theft of session tokens, API keys, or other sensitive data accessible from the MISP interface. - Potential for performing actions on behalf of the authenticated user. Affected versions: <2.5.48.

Remediation

The vendor's own words where we have them.

The fix applies HTML-encoding (via the h() helper) to the JSON string before it is interpolated into the HTML pre element. This ensures that any HTML or script markup present in the JSON string properties of a TAXII object is rendered as inert text rather than being parsed and executed by the browser, eliminating the XSS vector.

Answered from this record1

What should defenders know first?

CVE-2026-104906 is MISP TAXII Object Viewer Stored XSS via Unescaped JSON Output, a medium vulnerability affecting MISP from MISP. The current evidence does not list it in CISA KEV, and the exploit status is: Active exploitation is not confirmed from current sources for CVE-2026-104906. Public exploit evidence is: 1 public PoC repositories reported; 0 marked weaponized in current dataset. The affected-version evidence is listed in the key facts and affected products tables. Defenders should first verify whether exposed or business-critical assets run those versions, then apply vendor patches or mitigations, restrict reachable attack surface, and preserve logs for detection review. CVSS 6.2 describes technical severity, while EPSS 0% helps estimate near-term exploit likelihood; neither replaces asset context. Unknown fields should remain explicit in tickets, and threat actor, IOC, victimology, or payload claims should not be added unless a cited source supports them. Monitor CISA KEV, vendor advisories, NVD changes, public PoC repositories, and internal telemetry for update triggers.
