Summary

Wekan is open source kanban built with Meteor. Prior to 10.38, the /api/boards/:boardId/export, /api/boards/:boardId/attachments/:attachmentId/export, /api/boards/:boardId/export/csv, and /api/boards/:boardId/exportExcel handlers in models/export.js and models/exportExcel.js looked up a user from the attacker-controlled authToken query parameter and immediately called user._id.toString() without checking whether ReactiveCache.getUser() returned undefined. A request for a private board with an unknown token therefore threw a TypeError from an asynchronous route, producing an unhandled rejection that could terminate the Wekan process and deny service to all users. Version 10.38 adds a 401 guard after every export token lookup and wraps export handlers with safeRoute() so unexpected exceptions become controlled responses. This issue is fixed in version 10.38.

Fencer Intel keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.

The maintainers of wekan/wekan published their own advisory on GitHub. Reviewed sources take precedence over it.
