CVE-2026-123499 Details
Description
Vikunja veans before 2.7.1 contains a credential exposure vulnerability that allows malicious repository authors to capture API tokens by specifying an attacker-controlled server in .veans.yml. When veans runs in an untrusted checkout, it sends VEANS_TOKEN as a Bearer token, or login passwords, TOTP codes and tokens, to that server, granting attackers the victim's Vikunja access.
A credential exposure vulnerability exists in Vikunja veans versions prior to 2.7.1. This vulnerability allows malicious repository authors to intercept API tokens by directing an attacker-controlled server in the .veans.yml file. When veans operates in an untrusted environment, it transmits the VEANS_TOKEN as a Bearer token, along with login passwords, TOTP codes, and tokens, to the specified server. This action grants attackers access to the victim's Vikunja account.
Users can update to Vikunja veans version 2.7.1 or later to address this vulnerability.
