Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-27616 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- code.vikunja.io/api (Go): affected all versions; no fix listed\n- code.vikunja.io/api (Go): affected all versions up to 0.24.6; no fix listed\n- code.vikunja.io/api (Go): affected all versions up to 0.24.6; no fix listed\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-27616/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-27616/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-27616","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-27616/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-27616","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-7jp5-298q-jg98","GO-2026-4553"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["account_takeover","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Vikunja task manager","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary JavaScript via unsanitized SVG uploads to steal authentication tokens from localStorage, leading to account takeover.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"vikunja","vendor":"vikunja"}],"cvss":{"score":7.3,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"Vikunja is an open-source self-hosted task management platform. Prior to version 2.0.0, the application allows users to upload SVG files as task attachments. SVG is an XML-based format that supports JavaScript execution through elements such as \u003cscript\u003e tags or event handlers like onload. The application does not sanitize SVG content before storing it. When the uploaded SVG file is accessed via its direct URL, it is rendered inline in the browser under the application's origin. As a result, embedded JavaScript executes in the context of the authenticated user. Because the authentication token is stored in localStorage, it is accessible via JavaScript and can be retrieved by a malicious payload. Version 2.0.0 patches this issue.","ecosystems":["Go"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Vikunja Vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via Unsanitized SVG Attachment Upload Leading to Token Exposure","id":"CVE-2026-27616","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Go","product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2026"},"n_packages":3,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"TypiCMS Core has Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via SVG File Upload","id":"CVE-2026-27621"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"code.vikunja.io/api","purl":"pkg:golang/code.vikunja.io/api","source":"GO-2026-4553"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["0.24.6"],"package":"code.vikunja.io/api","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-7jp5-298q-jg98"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["0.24.6"],"package":"code.vikunja.io/api","purl":"pkg:golang/code.vikunja.io/api","source":"GHSA-7jp5-298q-jg98"}],"prev":{"headline":"ADB-Explorer: UNC Path Support in ManualAdbPath Leads to Remote Code Execution (RCE)","id":"CVE-2026-27615"},"products":["vikunja"],"published":"2026-02-25","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Vikunja Vulnerable to Account Takeover via Password Reset Token Reuse","id":"CVE-2026-28268","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-02-27"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Vijkunja has Weak Password Policy Combined with Persistent Sessions After Password Change","id":"CVE-2026-27575","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-02-25"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Vikunja Affected by XSS Via Task Preview","id":"CVE-2026-25935","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-02-11"},{"cvss_score":8.3,"headline":"Vikunja Affected by Privilege Escalation via Project Reparenting","id":"CVE-2026-35595","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-10"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Vikunja’s Improper Access Control Enables Bypass of Administrator-Imposed Account Disablement","id":"CVE-2026-33316","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-24"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Vikunja has IDOR in Task Attachment ReadOne Allows Cross-Project File Access and Deletion","id":"CVE-2026-33678","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-24"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Vikunja Vulnerable to Link Share Hash Disclosure via ReadAll Endpoint Enables Permission Escalation","id":"CVE-2026-33680","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-24"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"Go Vulnerability Database","prefix":"GO"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-02-26","vendors":["go-vikunja"]},"summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary JavaScript via unsanitized SVG uploads to steal authentication tokens from localStorage, leading to account takeover.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-27616/"}
