Mitigation includes ensuring the appliance is fully configured with default settings to prevent access to the vulnerable setup interface. Restrict network access to the setup interface during provisioning and avoid non-default configurations that expose it.
Description
CVE-2026-102123 is a path traversal vulnerability in the Kiteworks Core appliance setup interface. It allows an unauthenticated attacker to write files outside the intended directory, potentially compromising the appliance's integrity or causing denial of service. Exploitation requires network access to the setup interface, which is not accessible in the default fully configured appliance but may be reachable during initial provisioning or non-default configurations. The vulnerability affects Kiteworks Core versions prior to 9.5.0.
