AI-suggested
A fixed version 2.7.1 or later is implied but not explicitly stated in the input data. Until patched, restrict write access to trusted users only and consider disabling rich text rendering of untrusted content to prevent exploitation.
Description
Vikunja versions prior to 2.7.1 have a client-side request forgery vulnerability that allows users with write access to embed image elements in rich text fields. This can cause viewers' clients to make unintended requests to loopback or LAN addresses, potentially exposing local services to unauthorized access or tracking when content is viewed.
