Kolibri is an offline-first education platform. Prior to version 0.19.4, several Kolibri API endpoints accept an unvalidated baseurl parameter and fetch attacker-controlled URLs from the Kolibri server, reflecting the response body back to the caller. The original report identified two endpoints on the RemoteFacilityUser* viewsets; remediation review found two further reflection points on the same pattern. The GET endpoint was unauthenticated. Version 0.19.4 fixes the vulnerability.
CVE-2026-48053
This medium-severity CVE scores 5.8 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.3%, top 80% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- Lower severity and no public exploit yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
