CVE-2026-104907 — MISP: JavaScript Injection via Remote Tag ID in Event Preview Inline Handler
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).

Remediation
The vendor's own words where we have them.
The vulnerability is remediated by casting the remote tag ID to an integer before embedding it in the inline JavaScript onclick handler. This ensures only a numeric value is rendered, eliminating the possibility of breaking out of the JavaScript string context with special characters.
First 24 hours
Ordered from the record's own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found.
- 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.

What this weakness leads to
MITRE's own consequences and mitigations for the weakness class — the authority's wording, not guidance derived from the CVSS vector.
CWE-116 · Improper Encoding or Escaping of Output
- Modify Application Data
- Execute Unauthorized Code or Commands
- Bypass Protection Mechanism
Mitigation: Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid. For example, consider using the ESAPI Encoding control [REF-45] or a similar tool, library, or framework. These will help the programmer encode outputs in a manner less prone to error. Alternately, use built-in functions, but consider using wrappers in case those functions are discovered to have a vulnerability.
CWE-79 · Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')
- Bypass Protection Mechanism
- Read Application Data
- Execute Unauthorized Code or Commands
Mitigation: Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid. Examples of libraries and frameworks that make it easier to generate properly encoded output include Microsoft's Anti-XSS library, the OWASP ESAPI Encoding module, and Apache Wicket.

Answered from this record1
What should defenders know first?
CVE-2026-104907 is MISP: JavaScript Injection via Remote Tag ID in Event Preview Inline Handler, 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-2026-104907. 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 4.8 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.
