AI-suggested

Upgrade OpenCTI-Platform to version 6.9.5 or later, where this vulnerability is fixed. Since the vulnerability requires Manage customization privileges, restricting this capability to trusted users can reduce risk. Patch status is not explicitly stated in vendor advisory content, but the description confirms the fix in version 6.9.5. No additional mitigations are indicated.

Description

OpenCTI is an open source platform for managing cyber threat intelligence knowledge and observables. Prior to 6.9.5, the safeEjs.ts file does not properly sanitize EJS templates. Users with the Manage customization capability can run arbitrary JavaScript in the context of the OpenCTI platform process during notifier template execution. This vulnerability is fixed in 6.9.5.
