MISP, the open-source threat intelligence sharing platform, released version 2.4.126 to address a persistent cross-site scripting vulnerability tracked as CVE-2020-13153. The flaw could be triggered when an attribute imported via the freetext import tool correlates with another attribute containing a JavaScript payload embedded in its comment field. When an analyst hovers over the resulting correlation, the malicious script would execute in their browser session, potentially allowing an attacker to compromise the analyst's session or manipulate the platform.
Beyond the security fix, the release adds a tool to generate a communities webpage to help users find relevant MISP communities, an experimental CLI-only force-pull method for administrators to forcibly synchronize local instances with remote data (intended as a last-resort recovery option), and a broad set of quality-of-life improvements alongside updates to misp-objects, misp-taxonomies, and misp-galaxy. There is no indication of active exploitation; this is a routine maintenance and security patch release for platform operators to apply.

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 16,433 reports from 149 sources, 661 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.
