Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Vikunja is an open-source self-hosted task management platform. Starting in version 0.20.2 and prior to
version 2.2.0, the `DELETE /api/v1/projects/:project/background` endpoint checks `CanRead` permission
instead of `CanUpdate`, allowing any user with read-only access to a project to permanently delete its
background image. Version 2.2.0 fixes the issue. (CVE-2026-33312)

Solution

Update the code.vikunja.io/api library and its related packages to version 2.2.0 or later.
