Summary
Lookyloo, a web interface for capturing websites and mapping the domains they call, is affected through its report-a-capture API endpoint. An unauthenticated user could trigger an administrative search on a connected MISP instance, which could overload that MISP server and cause a denial of service.

Read the original description
Lookyloo is a web interface that allows users to capture a website page and then display a tree of domains that call each other. Prior to version 1.39.4, an unauthenticated user can trigger Lookyloo's "report a capture" email on demand (this is expected). The /json/<uuid>/report API endpoint (CaptureReport) is incorrectly passing the email and comment parameters, overwriting as_admin. When True, as_admin will trigger a search query on a MISP instance (if configured) and add a list of matching URLs in the email sent to the analyst (not the submitter, so there is no risk of leaking information) . It could potentially cause a DoS on the MISP instance. This issue has been patched in version 1.39.4.
