The MISP threat-sharing platform released version 2.4.89, addressing two security vulnerabilities alongside a batch of feature updates. CVE-2018-8948 concerns improper sanitisation from misp-modules, which could allow cross-site scripting via malicious expansion modules. CVE-2018-8949 is an API integrity issue where an authenticated user could edit or overwrite an attribute lacking a UUID, bypassing expected access controls.
Beyond the security fixes, the release adds a graphical event graph viewer/editor for objects, attributes, and relationships, STIX 2.0 import support in addition to existing export capability, and various API improvements including UUID exposure in attribute-level restSearch and mass-delete for attributes. A separate non-CVE bug affecting the object handler, which could allow objects to be overwritten under specific conditions, was also remediated with a new diagnostics recovery tool.
This is a routine software maintenance release for a widely used open-source threat intelligence platform; the vulnerabilities are low-severity and require authenticated access or reliance on malicious third-party modules, with no indication of active exploitation.

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 16,436 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.
