Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Vikunja (code.vikunja.io/api) versions 2.3.0 up to but not including 2.7.0 are affected. The WebSocket endpoint accepts any valid user JWT without checking its session against server-side session records, so a session revoked through the API keeps receiving live pushes, including notification content, and new connections can authenticate with a revoked token. An attacker needs a valid access token for the user, such as one stolen or leaked. Upgrade to version 2.7.0 or later.
