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.
CISA publishes the decision points, not a final SSVC decision. The decision also depends on mission and well-being impact, which is a property of your deployment rather than of the vulnerability.
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.

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.
