CVE-2026-33680 Details
Description
Vikunja is an open-source self-hosted task management platform. Prior to version 2.2.2, the `LinkSharing.ReadAll()` method allows link share authenticated users to list all link shares for a project, including their secret hashes. While `LinkSharing.CanRead()` correctly blocks link share users from reading individual shares via `ReadOne`, the `ReadAllWeb` handler bypasses this check by never calling `CanRead()`. An attacker with a read-only link share can retrieve hashes for write or admin link shares on the same project and authenticate with them, escalating to full admin access. Version 2.2.2 patches the issue.
A vulnerability in Vikunja's link sharing feature prior to version 2.2.2 allows authenticated users with read-only link shares to access sensitive information and escalate their permissions. The issue arises because the 'LinkSharing.ReadAll()' method improperly bypasses authorization checks, enabling access to secret hashes of other link shares within the same project. An attacker could exploit this to gain admin rights by authenticating with the leaked hash. This vulnerability affects Vikunja versions through 2.2.0.
Users can update to Vikunja version 2.2.2, which includes a complete fix for this vulnerability. Instructions for updating are available in the Vikunja documentation.
