DescriptionCVE.org

The sandbox that isolates document conversion on a Kiteworks appliance did not fully confine the code running inside it. Code already executing within that sandbox could potentially escape its confinement and act with the privileges of the service account that runs the application, which could allow an attacker in that position to read or modify application data and configuration, or to disrupt the service on the affected appliance.

AnalysisAI

Sandbox escape in Kiteworks Core's document-conversion feature (CVE-2026-102125, CVSS 8.8) allows code already executing inside the conversion sandbox to break confinement and act with the privileges of the application service account, enabling reads or modifications of application data and configuration or disruption of the service. Exploitation is conditional: the attacker must first get code running inside the sandbox, typically by submitting a crafted document for conversion, and the CVSS vector (AV:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C) confirms a local, low-privilege prerequisite with no user interaction once that foothold exists. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the attacker to already be running code inside the Kiteworks Core appliance's document-conversion sandbox - the feature that isolates document/file conversion - which in practice means first getting attacker-controlled content executed by the conversion engine (e.g. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment This is a genuine but conditional integrity/availability risk rather than a mass-exploitation threat. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Primary remediation is to apply the vendor-released fixes documented in Kiteworks security advisory GHSA-58j2-hj9r-c258 (patch available per vendor advisory; the exact fixed version is not specified in the provided data, so consult the advisory for the version to upgrade to). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: verify whether Kiteworks Core document-conversion is enabled and identify any exposure; restrict submission of untrusted documents to conversion workflows; review application and sandbox logs for suspicious conversion activity; and check vendor advisory GHSA-58j2-hj9r-c258 for any interim guidance. …
