Description

When the MISP connector imports an event from MISP, it shows entities like intrusion sets, threat actor groups, and malware. appear under "Entities distribution" as shown in image-1. and It successfully creates these entities in OpenCTI if they don't already exist. However, and they do not appear in the "Entities" or "Knowledge" sections.

Environment

1. OS (where OpenCTI server runs): Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS"
2. OpenCTI version: 6.1.4
3. MISP connector : opencti/connector-misp:6.1.4

Reproducible Steps

1. Image 1 : Imported event where entities appear under "Entities distribution":

2. No entity Appear under Entities and Knowledge :

3. MISP Event :

4. Misp Connector dockerfile :
