CVE-2026-33677 Details
Description
Vikunja is an open-source self-hosted task management platform. Prior to version 2.2.1, the `GET /api/v1/projects/:project/webhooks` endpoint returns webhook BasicAuth credentials (`basic_auth_user` and `basic_auth_password`) in plaintext to any user with read access to the project. While the existing code correctly masks the HMAC `secret` field, the BasicAuth fields added in a later migration were not given the same treatment. This allows read-only collaborators to steal credentials intended for authenticating against external webhook receivers. Version 2.2.1 patches the issue.
A vulnerability in Vikunja's webhook management API endpoint allows read-only project collaborators to access BasicAuth credentials in plaintext. This issue affects Vikunja versions through 2.2.0. The vulnerability arises because the `GET /api/v1/projects/:project/webhooks` endpoint, which is accessible to users with read project rights, fails to mask BasicAuth fields added in a recent migration. While the HMAC `secret` is properly concealed, the BasicAuth username and password are exposed, enabling unauthorized access to external services that rely on these credentials.
Users can update to Vikunja version 2.2.1 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
