The vendor notes that safe coding practices such as avoiding innerHTML and using textContent for DOM population, as well as restricting tag color inputs, are part of the fix. Users should monitor the official MISP project for updates or patches addressing this vulnerability and avoid using untrusted remote MISP instances until a fix is applied.
Description
Affected versions of cti-transmute render data obtained from a remote MISP instance into the event-browser interface using HTML interpolation. Because fields such as event IDs, event information, organization names, tags, tag colors, TLP labels, distribution labels, and error/flash text may be controlled by the remote MISP server, a malicious or compromised remote instance could return crafted values that inject HTML or script-capable content into the cti-transmute interface. The patch explicitly notes that remote-derived values must not reach innerHTML, and replaces string-built rows and badges with DOM nodes populated through textContent. It also restricts remote-controlled tag colors to six-digit hexadecimal values, preventing malicious CSS values such as url(...).
