An issue was discovered in app/Model/Attribute.php in MISP before 2.4.89. There is a critical API integrity bug, potentially allowing users to delete attributes of other events. A crafted edit for an event (without attribute UUIDs but attribute IDs set) could overwrite an existing attribute.

Weakness

The product provides an Applications Programming Interface (API) or similar interface for interaction with external actors, but the interface includes a dangerous method or function that is not properly restricted.
