Vikunja versions before 2.6.0 contain a resource exhaustion vulnerability in the Planka migrator that fails to enforce aggregate memory budgets during migration jobs. Authenticated attackers can submit migration requests pointing to attacker-controlled servers advertising numerous size-compliant attachments, exhausting worker memory and causing denial of service for all users.
