Technical details

The setup interface fails to enforce authentication checks after initial appliance configuration is complete, allowing unauthenticated network access to configuration endpoints. An attacker can perform information disclosure (reading contact names and email addresses) and data modification on a limited set of setup records without any credentials or privileges. A patch is available in Kiteworks Core version 9.5.0.
