CVE-2026-55066

HIGH CVSS 3.1: 7.1 EPSS 0.27%
Updated Sep 10, 2026
Vikunja
Parameter Value
CVSS 7.1 (HIGH)
Fixed In 2.4.0
Type CWE-639 (Authorization Bypass)
Vendor Vikunja
Public PoC No

Vikunja is an open-source self-hosted task management platform. Prior to 2.4.0, POST /api/v1/projects/{project}/views/{view}/buckets/{bucket}/tasks accepts a body supplied task_id but TaskBucket.CanUpdate in pkg/models/kanban_task_bucket.go authorizes only the project, view, and bucket from the URL. updateTaskBucket then calls Task.ReadOne without a separate task permission check, returns the victim task contents, and can update the task done state when the attacker chooses a done bucket. Because task identifiers are global sequential values, an authenticated user can enumerate cross-tenant tasks and modify their completion metadata through both the v1 and v2 routes that share this model.

This issue is fixed in version 2.4.0.
