CVE-2025-69026 is a vulnerability identified in Roxnor's PopupKit, a popup-builder-block software component used in web development. The vulnerability allows exposure of sensitive system information to an unauthorized control sphere, meaning that an attacker with limited privileges (PR:L) can remotely (AV:N) retrieve embedded sensitive data without requiring user interaction (UI:N). The vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 2.1.5. The weakness lies in insufficient access control or improper data handling within PopupKit, which leads to leakage of sensitive information embedded in the system or application context. This information disclosure does not affect the integrity or availability of the system but compromises confidentiality. The CVSS v3.1 base score is 4.3, indicating a medium severity level. The attack vector is network-based, with low attack complexity, and no user interaction is needed, making it feasible for remote exploitation by authenticated users. No known exploits have been reported in the wild, and no official patches have been linked yet, although the vulnerability was published on December 30, 2025. The vulnerability could be leveraged by attackers to gather intelligence for further exploitation or lateral movement within a network.

For European organizations, the exposure of sensitive system information can lead to increased risk of targeted attacks, including phishing, social engineering, or privilege escalation attempts. Organizations relying on PopupKit for web interfaces or customer engagement tools may inadvertently leak confidential configuration details, internal IP addresses, or other embedded secrets. This could facilitate attackers in mapping network infrastructure or identifying additional vulnerabilities. While the vulnerability does not directly compromise system integrity or availability, the confidentiality breach could undermine trust, lead to regulatory non-compliance (e.g., GDPR), and cause reputational damage. Sectors with high data sensitivity such as finance, healthcare, and government services are particularly at risk. The lack of known exploits reduces immediate threat but does not eliminate the risk of future exploitation, especially as the vulnerability becomes more widely known.

European organizations should implement the following specific mitigations: 1) Immediately audit and restrict user privileges to the minimum necessary, ensuring that only trusted users have authenticated access to PopupKit components. 2) Monitor network traffic and application logs for unusual access patterns or attempts to retrieve sensitive data from PopupKit endpoints. 3) Isolate PopupKit deployments in segmented network zones to limit lateral movement if compromised. 4) Review and sanitize any embedded sensitive data within PopupKit configurations or templates to minimize exposure. 5) Engage with Roxnor or authorized vendors to obtain patches or updates addressing this vulnerability as soon as they become available. 6) Conduct penetration testing focused on information disclosure vectors in PopupKit implementations. 7) Educate development and operations teams about secure coding and configuration practices to prevent similar issues. 8) Implement Web Application Firewalls (WAF) with custom rules to detect and block suspicious requests targeting PopupKit components.
