CVE-2026-91983

Vikunja before 2.6.0 contains an API token scope bypass vulnerability in task read endpoints where authorization fails to inspect query string parameters. Attackers with limited token scopes can use the expand parameter to access restricted data like comments, reactions, and time entries without proper permission verification.

What this means for your business

  • An attacker can use it remotely, over a network, with an ordinary user login, and without anyone at your company clicking anything.

What to do

  1. 1Ask your IT team or provider whether any of your systems use the affected product.
  2. 2If you do, follow the vendor's guidance. No patch reference has been published yet.
