What is CVE-2026-33679?

Vikunja, an open-source task management platform, has a vulnerability where the DownloadImage function does not implement adequate SSRF protections when fetching user avatar images from OpenID Connect URLs. This flaw allows an attacker to manipulate their OIDC profile picture URL, causing the Vikunja server to send HTTP GET requests to any internal or cloud metadata endpoints. Since this vulnerability bypasses SSRF safeguards present in other system components, it poses a significant threat to the integrity and confidentiality of the network environment. Users are urged to upgrade to version 2.2.1 or later, which addresses this security concern.
