CVE-2026-53447 Details
Description
Wekan is open source kanban built with Meteor. Prior to 9.35, the Wekan cloneBoard Meteor method in models/import.js uses caller-supplied sourceBoardId to build a board export through models/exporter.js without invoking canExport() or checking source-board membership. Any authenticated user who knows a private board ID can clone the board into their own account and read its cards, comments, attachments, member information, and activities. This issue is fixed in version 9.35.
A vulnerability in the Wekan `cloneBoard` Meteor method, present in versions prior to 9.35, allows any authenticated user to clone private boards into their own account without authorization. The method uses a caller-supplied board ID to export the entire board, including cards, comments, attachments, member information, and activities, without checking if the user is allowed to access the board. This issue has been addressed in version 9.35.
Users can update to Wekan version 9.35 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
