CVE-2026-93295
MISP Background Job Argument Injection via Console Path Switches Enables Remote Code Execution
02 Description
MISP Background Job Argument Injection via Console Path Switches Enables Remote Code Execution
03 Exploitation and scoring
- Exploitation
- Assessed, none found. CISA's assessment recorded neither public exploit code nor evidence of exploitation when it was made.
- SSVC decision
- ExploitationnoneCISA recorded no public exploit code and no evidence of exploitation.
- AutomatablenoAt least one step from reconnaissance to exploitation cannot be reliably automated.
- Technical ImpactpartialSuccessful exploitation gives limited control of the vulnerable component.
- EPSS probability
- 0.63% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.
- EPSS percentile
- Equal to or higher than the score of 50.4% of scored records. A rank, not a probability.
- NVD base score
- 8.7 (CVSS v4.0), scored by the NVD independently of the CNA.
- NVD CVSS vector

07 Remediation
The fix introduces a validation layer in BackgroundJobsTool::enqueue() that rejects any job argument matching a reserved CakePHP console path switch (-app, --app, -working, --working, -root, --root, -webroot, --webroot), throwing an InvalidArgumentException before the job is queued. Additionally, the EventsController::contact() method now casts the person field to a boolean, preventing it from ever forming a switch/value pair with the adjacent message field. Together, these changes ensure that user-supplied data can never be interpreted as a console path directive by the worker process.
