SCA: security update for code.vikunja.io/api (GHSA-8hp8-9fhr-pfm9)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 439232

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 2.2.2, 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. (CVE-2026-33680)

Solution

Update the code.vikunja.io/api library and its related packages to version 2.2.2 or later.
