You need to change the capture mode, if you want the box not to fit to the contents:



documentclass{scrartcl}
usepackage[svgnames,x11names]{xcolor}
usepackage{fancyhdr,tcolorbox}
pagestyle{fancy}
cfoot{tcbox[capture=minipage,colback=Khaki1!25!white,colframe=DarkGoldenrod2!75!black,arc=1mm,width=5cm]{textit{emph{thepage}}}}


begin{document}

abc

end{document}
