Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
GHSA-qfwc-vx6f-3g6g affects the Go module code.vikunja.io/api versions before 2.6.0. A user with read-only access to a project can call the single link-share read endpoint (v1 and v2) and receive the share's hash, which can be exchanged for a link-share token carrying the share's permission level, allowing writes the user is not entitled to. Upgrade to version 2.6.0 or later. The source lists no other workaround.
