Frequently Asked Questions
What is CVE-2026-63092?
kirby-modules through 5.5.7, fixed in commit 315417e, contains an information disclosure vulnerability that allows any authenticated Kirby Panel user to retrieve the full plaintext commercial license key by sending a GET request to the modules/activate dialog endpoint. The plugin's activate dialog handler in lib/areas.php returns the complete key via ModulesLicense::readKey() without performing an administrator check, as the dialog is gated only by the access.system permission which defaults to true for all non-admin roles, enabling attackers to use the disclosed key to activate the plugin on arbitrary third-party installations.
Is CVE-2026-63092 actively exploited?
No confirmed active exploitation of CVE-2026-63092 has been reported, but organizations should still patch proactively.

Weaknesses (CWE)
CWE-862 — Missing Authorization: The product does not perform an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action.
- [Architecture and Design] Divide the product into anonymous, normal, privileged, and administrative areas. Reduce the attack surface by carefully mapping roles with data and functionality. Use role-based access control (RBAC) [REF-229] to enforce the roles at the appropriate boundaries. Note that this approach may not protect against horizontal authorization, i.e., it will not protect a user from attacking others with the same role.
- [Architecture and Design] Ensure that access control checks are performed related to the business logic. These checks may be different than the access control checks that are applied to more generic resources such as files, connections, processes, memory, and database records. For example, a database may restrict access for medical records to a specific database user, but each record might only be intended to be accessible to the patient and the patient's doctor [REF-7].
