CVE-2026-123510 Details
Description
Vikunja before 2.7.1 fails to re-anchor PluginsDir and LogPath to service.rootpath, allowing plugins to load from and logs to be written in the startup working directory. Local attackers able to write to that directory can plant plugins loaded into the server when plugins are enabled, or read misplaced logs including audit.log.
A vulnerability exists in Vikunja versions prior to 2.7.1, where the application fails to properly re-anchor the PluginsDir and LogPath to the service.rootpath. This oversight allows plugins to be loaded from the startup working directory and logs, including audit.log, to be written there instead of the designated rootpath. Local attackers with write access to the startup directory can exploit this by planting malicious plugins that are loaded into the server when plugins are enabled, or by reading misplaced logs.
Users can update to Vikunja version 2.7.1 or later, where this vulnerability has been patched.
