CVE-2026-35602

Vikunja has a File Size Limit Bypass via Vikunja Import

Published Apr 10, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 5.4 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
Vikunja is an open-source self-hosted task management platform. Prior to 2.3.0, the Vikunja file import endpoint uses the attacker-controlled Size field from the JSON metadata inside the import zip instead of the actual decompressed file content length for the file size enforcement check. By setting Size to 0 in the JSON while including large compressed file entries in the zip, an attacker bypasses the configured maximum file size limit. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.3.0.
