MISP modules are autonomous modules that can be used for expansion and other services in MISP.
The modules are written in Python 3 following a simple API interface. The objective is to ease the extensions of MISP functionalities without modifying core components. The API is available via a simple REST API which is independent from MISP installation or configuration.
MISP modules support is included in MISP starting from version 2.4.28.

- ASN History - a hover and expansion module to expand an AS number with the ASN description and its history.
- CIRCL Passive SSL - a hover and expansion module to expand IP addresses with the X.509 certificate seen.
- CIRCL Passive DNS - a hover and expansion module to expand hostname and IP addresses with passive DNS information.
- CVE - a hover module to give more information about a vulnerability (CVE).
- DNS - a simple module to resolve MISP attributes like hostname and domain to expand IP addresses attributes.
- DomainTools - a hover and expansion module to get information from DomainTools whois.
- EUPI - a hover and expansion module to get information about an URL from the Phishing Initiative project.
- GeoIP - a hover and expansion module to get GeoIP information from geolite/maxmind.
- IPASN - a hover and expansion to get the BGP ASN of an IP address.
- passivetotal - a passivetotal module that queries a number of different PassiveTotal datasets.
- sourcecache - a module to cache a specific link from a MISP instance.
- countrycode - a hover module to tell you what country a URL belongs to.
- virustotal - an expansion module to pull known resolutions and malware samples related with an IP/Domain from virusTotal (this modules require a VirusTotal private API key)
- CEF module to export Common Event Format (CEF).
- OCR Optical Character Recognition (OCR) module for MISP to import attributes from images, scan or faxes.
- stiximport - An import module to process STIX xml/json
- VMRay - An import module to process VMRay export

/usr/local/bin/misp-modules #to start the modulesCreate your module in misp_modules/modules/. The module should have at minimum three functions:
- introspection function that returns a dict of the supported attributes (input and output) by your expansion module.
- handler function which accepts a JSON document to expand the values and return a dictionary of the expanded values.
- version function that returns a dict with the version and the associated meta-data including potential configurations required of the module.
Don't forget to return an error key and value if an error is raised to propagate it to the MISP user-interface.
If your module requires additional configuration (to be exposed via the MISP user-interface), a config array is added to the meta-data output containing all the potential configuration values:
"meta": {
"description": "PassiveTotal expansion service to expand values with multiple Passive DNS sources",
"config": [
"username",
"password"
],
"module-type": [
"expansion",
"hover"
],
...
A MISP module can be of different types:
- expansion - service related to an attribute that can be used to extend and update an existing event.
- hover - service related to an attribute to provide additional information to the users without updating the event.
- import/export - import / export data
module-type is an array where the list of supported types can be added.
MISP uses the modules function to discover the available MISP modules and their supported MISP attributes:
% curl -s http://127.0.0.1:6666/modules | jq .

The MISP module service returns the available modules in a JSON array containing each module name along with their supported input attributes.
Based on this information, a query can be built in a JSON format and saved as body.json:
{
"hostname": "www.foo.be",
"module": "dns"
}Then you can POST this JSON format query towards the MISP object server:
curl -s http://127.0.0.1:6666/query -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data @body.json -X POST
The module should output the following JSON:
{
"results": [
{
"types": [
"ip-src",
"ip-dst"
],
"values": [
"188.65.217.78"
]
}
]
}It is also possible to restrict the category options of the resolved attributes by passing a list of categories along (optional):
{
"results": [
{
"types": [
"ip-src",
"ip-dst"
],
"values": [
"188.65.217.78"
],
"categories": [
"Network activity",
"Payload delivery"
]
}
]
}For both the type and the category lists, the first item in the list will be the default setting on the interface.
Fork the project, add your module, test it and make a pull-request. Modules can be also private as you can add a module in your own MISP installation.
