CVE-2026-95806

Status: DeferredHigh (7.7)—

MISP ships with PHP's phar stream wrapper registered in both its web entry point and its console entry point.

The phar stream wrapper causes PHP to treat a phar archive as a directory, which has two security consequences:

No component of MISP, the vendored CakePHP framework, or any runtime-loaded library reads or constructs phar archives. The wrapper therefore serves no legitimate purpose in the MISP runtime and exists solely as an available primitive for an attacker who can influence a filesystem path argument.

Technical details traces, logs and code from the original report
 - any filesystem operation on a caller-influenced path that resolves to a phar archive triggers an implicit unserialize() call, creating a deserialization sink;
 - a relocated application root can reach executable code inside an uploaded phar file, enabling arbitrary code execution as the web user.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
