WeKan versions prior to 8.19 contain an insecure direct object reference (IDOR) in the card comment creation API. The endpoint accepts an authorId from the request body, allowing an authenticated user to spoof the recorded comment author by supplying another user's identifier.

WeKan versions prior to 8.19 contain an authorization logic vulnerability where the instance configuration setting allowPrivateOnly is not sufficiently enforced at board creation time. When allowPrivateOnly is enabled, users can still create public boards due to incomplete server-side enforcement.

WeKan versions prior to 8.19 contain an authorization weakness in the attachment upload API. The API does not fully validate that provided identifiers (such as boardId, cardId, swimlaneId, and listId) are consistent and refer to a coherent card/board relationship, enabling attempts to upload attachments with mismatched object relationships.

WeKan versions prior to 8.19 contain an insecure direct object reference (IDOR) in checklist creation and related checklist routes. The implementation does not verify that the supplied cardId belongs to the supplied boardId, allowing cross-board ID tampering by manipulating identifiers.

WeKan versions prior to 8.19 contain an authorization vulnerability in card move logic. A user can specify a destination board/list/swimlane without adequate authorization checks for the destination and without validating that destination objects belong to the destination board, potentially enabling unauthorized cross-board moves.

WeKan versions prior to 8.19 contain an authorization vulnerability where certain card update API paths validate only board read access rather than requiring write permission. This can allow users with read-only roles to perform card updates that should require write access.

Wekan is an open source kanban tool built with Meteor. Versions 8.32 and 8.33 are vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) via attachment URL loading. During board import in Wekan, attachment URLs from user-supplied JSON data are fetched directly by the server without any URL validation or filtering, affecting both the Wekan and Trello import flows. The parseActivities() and parseActions() methods extract user-controlled attachment URLs, which are then passed directly to Attachments.load() for download with no sanitization. This Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability allows any authenticated user to make the server issue arbitrary HTTP requests, potentially accessing internal network services such as cloud instance metadata endpoints (exposing IAM credentials), internal databases, and admin panels that are otherwise unreachable from outside the network. This issue has been fixed in version 8.34.

Wekan is an open source kanban tool built with Meteor. In versions 8.31.0 through 8.33, the globalwebhooks publication exposes all global webhook integrations—including sensitive url and token fields—without performing any authentication check on the server side. Although the subscription is normally invoked from the admin settings page, the server-side publication has no access control, meaning any DDP client, including unauthenticated ones, can subscribe and receive the data. This allows an unauthenticated attacker to retrieve global webhook URLs and authentication tokens, potentially enabling unauthorized use of those webhooks and access to connected external services. This issue has been fixed in version 8.34.

Wekan is an open source kanban tool built with Meteor. In versions 8.31.0 through 8.33, the notificationUsers publication in Wekan publishes user documents with no field filtering, causing the ReactiveCache.getUsers() call to return all fields including highly sensitive data such as bcrypt password hashes, active session login tokens, email verification tokens, full email addresses, and any stored OAuth tokens. Unlike Meteor's default auto-publication which strips the services field for security, custom publications return whatever fields the cursor contains, meaning all subscribers receive the complete user documents. Any authenticated user who triggers this publication can harvest credentials and active session tokens for other users, enabling password cracking, session hijacking, and full account takeover. This issue has been fixed in version 8.34.
