Summary

CVE-2023-38488 is a vulnerability that affects the Kirby content management system versions prior to 3.5.8.3, 3.6.6.3, 3.7.5.2, 3.8.4.1, and 3.9.6, potentially impacting all Kirby sites that allow potential attackers in the group of authenticated Panel users or external visitors to update a Kirby content file through forms like contact or comment forms. The vulnerability allows attackers with content write access to modify content fields unintentionally, which can lead to altered site content, broken site behavior, or injection of malicious data or code depending on the field type and usage. Sites that do not allow write access for untrusted users or visitors are not affected by this vulnerability. Remediating the issue involves updating to the patched versions of Kirby (3.5.8.3, 3.6.6., 3., etc.) to mitigate the potential risks posed by this vulnerability.
