SCA: security update for code.vikunja.io/api (GHSA-rj9j-8772-4h6c)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 474069

Description

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

 - Vikunja versions >= 0.24.0 and <= 2.3.0 contain a broken object level authorization (BOLA) vulnerability
 in the task-collection endpoint (GET /api/v1/projects/{project}/views/{view}/tasks). The endpoint loads
 the requested project view from the URL path without verifying the caller is authorized for it. For a
 link-share token holder, the task scope is pinned to the share's own project, but the view is taken from
 the attacker-controlled path and never re-validated. As a result, a holder of any project share link can
 read any other tenant's kanban bucket records — bucket titles and the full created_by user object
 (username, name, id) — for every view in the instance. The same missing pre-authorization view load also
 creates a project/view-ID existence oracle (404 vs. non-404) usable by link shares and ordinary
 authenticated users. Task contents remain constrained to the share's own project and are not disclosed.
 Fixed in 2.4.0. (CVE-2026-68582)

Solution

Update the code.vikunja.io/api library and its related packages to version 2.4.0 or later.
