Page deletion via unverified cross-site requests
Published Aug 24, 2022 · Updated Jul 4, 2026
Cross-site request forgery in Kirby 2.5.12 allows remote attackers to delete pages through an authenticated Panel user's browser. The Panel delete endpoint at /kirby/panel/pages/{page}/delete accepts an auto-submitted cross-origin request without verifying a CSRF token. Exploitation requires a logged-in Panel user to visit the attacker-controlled page, and successful requests delete the chosen content page.
