SCA: security update for code.vikunja.io/api (GHSA-8cmm-j6c4-rr8v)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 439219

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. Prior to version 2.2.1, when the Vikunja
API returns tasks, it populates the `related_tasks` field with full task objects for all related tasks
without checking whether the requesting user has read permission on those tasks' projects. An
authenticated user who can read a task that has cross-project relations will receive full details (title,
description, due dates, priority, percent completion, project ID, etc.) of tasks in projects they have no
access to. Version 2.2.1 patches the issue. (CVE-2026-33676)

Solution

Update the code.vikunja.io/api library and its related packages to version 2.2.1 or later.
