CVE-2026-78387
Overview
CVE-2026-78387 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 24, 2026.

The affected functionality permits modification of configuration sections including notification, LDAP, SMTP, and general application settings. Successful exploitation could therefore allow an attacker to alter security-sensitive application behavior, redirect integrations or notifications, modify authentication-related configuration, disrupt external services, or render the RansomLook installation unavailable.
The configuration editor also operated on a configuration file containing sensitive
