Kirby is an open-source content management system. Prior to 4.9.4 and 5.4.4, Kirby sites and plugins using the Kirby Http Remote class, including Remote::request(), Remote::get(), and Remote::post(), to send outgoing HTTP requests with untrusted data in the headers option could allow newline characters in a header value to inject a separate unintended request header to the remote service. This issue is fixed in versions 4.9.4 and 5.4.4.
CVE-2026-50188
This medium-severity CVE scores 6.9 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.3%, top 79% 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.
