An open redirect vulnerability existed in MISP UsersController::routeafterlogin() because the value stored in the pre_login_requested_url session key was used as the post-login redirect destination without sufficiently enforcing that it was a local application path. An unauthenticated remote attacker could craft a link that causes a victim to visit a trusted MISP instance and, after successful authentication, be redirected to an attacker-controlled external URL. This could be abused to increase the credibility of phishing attacks, redirect users to counterfeit login pages, or deliver attacker-controlled content from an untrusted domain. CWE-601 describes this weakness as accepting user-controlled input that specifies an external link and using it in a redirect, with phishing as a common consequence. The patch mitigates the issue by decoding and parsing the URL, rejecting URLs with a scheme, host, user component, missing or non-local path, and protocol-relative forms such as //example.com and /\example.com.

What it means for a small business

If your business uses misp, install the vendor's update. If you're not sure whether you use it, ask whoever manages your computers.

How likely is an attack? The Exploit Prediction Scoring System, run by FIRST (the global association of security response teams), puts the odds of this one being exploited in the next 30 days at 0.22%, higher than 12% of CVEs. That’s low, but low isn’t zero, and the odds jump the day someone publishes an exploit. Scored October 29, 2026, updated daily.

Check your own setup

Website check: reads what your site runs from the outside (WordPress version, plugins it can see, old server software) and matches it against this database.
Server check: what your web server says about itself, and whether that version has known flaws.
