How severe is CVE-2026-33678?

CVE-2026-33678 has a CVSS score of 8.1/10, rated HIGH. Immediate patching is strongly recommended.

Which packages are affected by CVE-2026-33678?

CVE-2026-33678 affects the following packages: code.vikunja.io/api (Go). Ecosystems affected: Go.

How do I fix CVE-2026-33678?

Update code.vikunja.io/api to 2.2.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-33678 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2026-33678 in my Go dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for code.vikunja.io/api. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.

How do I mitigate CVE-2026-33678 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.

How does O3 Security protect against CVE-2026-33678?

O3 pinpoints whether CVE-2026-33678 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.

Is CVE-2026-33678 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2026-33678 yet. This does not mean the vulnerability cannot be exploited — absence of public exploits does not imply safety. Apply the recommended fix and use O3 Security to monitor your exposure.

What is the EPSS score for CVE-2026-33678?

CVE-2026-33678 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.3%, placing it in the 18th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. This score indicates relatively lower exploitation probability, though the CVSS severity should still guide your patching priority.

When was CVE-2026-33678 published, and has it been updated?

CVE-2026-33678 was published on March 24, 2026 and was last updated on April 10, 2026. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

Real-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Go packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.

Description

Vikunja is an open-source self-hosted task management platform. Prior to version 2.2.1, TaskAttachment.ReadOne() queries attachments by ID only (WHERE id = ?), ignoring the task ID from the URL path. The permission check in CanRead() validates access to the task specified in the URL, but ReadOne() loads a different attachment that may belong to a task in another project. This allows any authenticated user to download or delete any attachment in the system by providing their own accessible task ID with a target attachment ID. Attachment IDs are sequential integers, making enumeration trivial. Version 2.2.1 patches the issue.
