Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-09-15 12:17 - Updated: 2026-09-16 13:42

Severity

5.1 (Medium) - CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:P/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N

Summary

Affected versions of MISP use Redis to throttle repeated authentication-failure log entries. The intent is to avoid excessive duplicate logs while still recording failed authentication activity. However, User->setupRedis() returns false when Redis cannot be reached. The vulnerable _shouldLog() logic only returned true when a Redis instance existed and no throttle key was present. Therefore, when Redis was unavailable, the function did not allow the log write at all, effectively silencing authentication-failure logging for the duration of the outage. Version affected: ≤2.5.45

`a39b25d2f141`	fix: [logging] Log auth failures when the throttle cannot	`ab1b5a5a68cf…`

Fix summary

The _shouldLog() method now explicitly checks whether the Redis connection is available before attempting to use it. If setupRedis() returns false, the method immediately returns true, causing every authentication-failure event to be logged. This converts the previous fail-closed behavior (silence on dependency failure) into a fail-open behavior for security logging (log everything when the throttle state is unavailable), ensuring that a Redis outage cannot be used to suppress the audit trail of failed authentication attempts.

Patch summary

In app/Controller/AppController.php, the _shouldLog() method was restructured: a new early-return guard "if (!$redis) { return true; }" was inserted immediately after the setupRedis() call, so that an unavailable Redis connection causes all auth-failure events to be logged. The subsequent throttle check was simplified to "if (!$redis->exists(...))" since the null case is already handled. Additionally, a block of commented-out Redis throttle code in the afterFilter() method (lines referencing misp:auth_fail_throttling) was removed as dead code.

CVSS rationale

The vulnerability is reachable over the network (AV:N) because MISP is a web application. Attack complexity is High (AC:H) because exploitation requires the Redis instance to be specifically unavailable at the time authentication failures occur; it is not a simple request. No attack target is required (AT:N). No privileges are needed (PR:N) because the suppressed logs pertain to unauthenticated authentication-failure events. No user interaction is required (UI:N). There is no direct confidentiality or integrity impact on the MISP data store (VC:N, VI:N). The availability impact is Low (VA:L) because the security-logging/audit function is unavailable during the Redis outage, impairing detection and forensic capabilities, but the core MISP service remains operational. No cross-scope impacts (SC:N, SI:N, SA:N).

Weakness rationale

CWE-778 The system fails to record security-relevant events (authentication failures) when a supporting dependency (Redis) is unavailable. The logging path silently drops all audit entries under a specific operational condition, which is a textbook case of insufficient logging of security events.

Assumptions to verify

The affected version range is inferred from the tag_version_boundary metadata (v2.5.46 with 189 commits after the fix), suggesting the fix landed before the v2.5.46 release; exact affected version boundaries are not explicitly stated in the patch.
The CVSS availability impact (VA:L) reflects the loss of the security-logging function rather than a denial of service against the MISP application itself.
The patch does not indicate whether the Redis throttle was the sole mechanism for auth-failure logging or whether a fallback file-based logger existed; the analysis assumes the Redis-gated path was the primary logging path for auth failures.
The commit date (2 Sep 2026) is taken at face value from the patch metadata.

Model comparison

Selected qwen3.8:27b by deterministic-consensus-v1
The selected result is closest to model consensus; this heuristic does not establish factual correctness and human review remains required.

                "cvssRationale": "The vulnerability is reachable over the network (AV:N) because MISP is a web application. Attack complexity is High (AC:H) because exploitation requires the Redis instance to be specifically unavailable at the time authentication failures occur; it is not a simple request. No attack target is required (AT:N). No privileges are needed (PR:N) because the suppressed logs pertain to unauthenticated authentication-failure events. No user interaction is required (UI:N). There is no direct confidentiality or integrity impact on the MISP data store (VC:N, VI:N). The availability impact is Low (VA:L) because the security-logging/audit function is unavailable during the Redis outage, impairing detection and forensic capabilities, but the core MISP service remains operational. No cross-scope impacts (SC:N, SI:N, SA:N).",
                "draft": false,
                "fixSummary": "The _shouldLog() method now explicitly checks whether the Redis connection is available before attempting to use it. If setupRedis() returns false, the method immediately returns true, causing every authentication-failure event to be logged. This converts the previous fail-closed behavior (silence on dependency failure) into a fail-open behavior for security logging (log everything when the throttle state is unavailable), ensuring that a Redis outage cannot be used to suppress the audit trail of failed authentication attempts.",

The subsequent throttle check was simplified to \"if (!$redis-\u003eexists(...))\" since the null case is already handled.
