MISP, the open-source threat intelligence platform, released version 2.4.134 addressing a server-side request forgery vulnerability (CVE-2020-28043) in its REST client. The flaw allowed users to leverage the use_full_path parameter to issue arbitrary queries to any URL, which could be abused to reach internal servers reachable from the MISP instance itself, potentially exposing internal infrastructure to external users. The fix disables the full-path option by default and introduces a new server setting to configure an override base URL, reducing the SSRF attack surface.
Beyond the security fix, the release adds several feature improvements including expanded Event Report functionality with automatic discovery of attributes, galaxies, and tags from captured websites, an optional attachment A/V scanning capability, ATT&CK sub-technique galaxy support, and a sample script for direct STIX 1/2 ingestion. The vulnerability was responsibly reported by Heitor Gouvêa and resolved alongside numerous UI and bug fixes documented in the project's changelog.
This is a routine software maintenance release for a widely used threat-intel sharing platform; the SSRF vulnerability, while notable for CTI infrastructure operators, requires no evidence of active exploitation and is addressed via a straightforward patch and configuration default change.

What this brief leaves out
This page is the free tier: the write-up, the severity, the names. In the app the same report carries live profiles of the CVEs it names. The paid plans add the security research and news reporting the free tier leaves out.
It sits in a corpus of 16,445 reports from 149 sources, 666 of them written in the last seven days, and it grows through the day.
A new account starts with three days of all of it, no card, then keeps the government and CERT reporting free. Slack alerts are a paid-plan feature: name the vendors you run and Slack hears about the reports that touch them, not the rest of the week's. Nothing is charged unless you subscribe.
