CVE-2026-102105: CWE-918 Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in Kiteworks Email Protection Gateway
Kiteworks Email Protection Gateway versions before 9.5.0 contain a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability. This flaw allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to cause the gateway to make crafted requests to internal or unintended network destinations when rendering message content with external resource references. Exploitation could lead to disclosure of sensitive internal information or unintended actions on internal systems. The vulnerability has a high severity with a CVSS score of 9.1. No explicit patch information is provided, so users should verify vendor advisories for remediation status.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-102105 is a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in Kiteworks Email Protection Gateway prior to version 9.5.0. The vulnerability arises when the gateway processes email content that references external resources, enabling an unauthenticated remote attacker to induce the gateway to send crafted requests to internal or otherwise unintended network destinations. This can potentially expose sensitive internal information or cause unintended actions on internal systems accessible from the gateway.
Potential Impact
An attacker exploiting this SSRF vulnerability can cause the Kiteworks Email Protection Gateway to issue unauthorized requests to internal network services or other unintended destinations. This may lead to sensitive information disclosure or trigger unintended operations on internal systems. The vulnerability does not affect availability but has high confidentiality and integrity impact, as reflected by the CVSS score of 9.1.
Mitigation Recommendations
No explicit patch or remediation information is provided in the available data. Users should consult the Kiteworks vendor advisory for official fixes or mitigation guidance. Until a fix is confirmed, consider restricting network access from the gateway to sensitive internal resources and carefully review email content handling policies to reduce exposure.
