CVE-2026-95667
MISP Installer Log and FIFO Created World-Readable, Exposing Sensitive Credentials
02 Description
MISP Installer Log and FIFO Created World-Readable, Exposing Sensitive Credentials
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
- 0.18% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.
- EPSS percentile
- Equal to or higher than the score of 7.5% of scored records. A rank, not a probability.
- NVD base score
- 6.9 (CVSS v4.0), scored by the NVD independently of the CNA.
- NVD CVSS vector
- CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:X/CR:X/IR:X/AR:X/MAV:X/MAC:X/MAT:X/MPR:X/MUI:X/MVC:X/MVI:X/MVA:X/MSC:X/MSI:X/MSA:X/S:X/AU:X/R:X/V:X/RE:X/U:X
- NVD analysis status
- Deferred. NVD last modified this record on 2026-09-22.

07 Remediation
The installer scripts now explicitly create the log file with 0600 permissions using install -m 0600 and the FIFO with mkfifo -m 0600, ensuring both are root-readable/writable only from the moment of creation. The log file is also removed (rm -f) before creation to prevent a pre-existing symlink in /var/log from being used to redirect the write to an attacker-controlled path. This matches the existing 0600 treatment applied to /root/misp_settings.txt by the save_settings() function.
