## What is CVE-2026-73243?

CVE-2026-73243 is a medium-severity server-side request forgery vulnerability in kekingcn kkFileView, published on 11 Aug 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

kkFileView is a universal file online preview project based on Spring Boot. Prior to 5.0.1, the unauthenticated GET /addTask endpoint in kkFileView is omitted from TrustHostFilter and TrustDirFilter in server/src/main/java/cn/keking/config/WebConfig.java, allowing FileConvertQueueTask to fetch an attacker-selected URL after FileHandlerService#getFileAttribute uses the fullfilename parameter to force an OFFICE, COMPRESS, or CAD type. This issue is fixed in version 5.0.1.

Weakness: CWE-918 (Server-Side Request Forgery)
