If you cannot patch yet, restrict network access to the appliance during initial activation to trusted administrators only to prevent unauthorized triggering of the activation process.
Description
CVE-2026-102110 is a medium severity vulnerability in Kiteworks Core where an endpoint used during initial appliance setup lacks authentication and does not enforce its intended state precondition. This allows an unauthenticated network attacker to repeatedly trigger the privileged activation process during the initial activation window, potentially disrupting setup and leaving the appliance incompletely configured. The vulnerability is only exploitable during the first-time activation of the appliance and is not accessible afterward.
