CVE-2026-68561
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
Wekan is open source kanban built with Meteor. Prior to 9.89, the second Boards.allow({ update }) rule in server/permissions/boards.js called canUpdateBoardSort in server/lib/utils.js, which authorized any board member whenever fieldNames included sort. Because Meteor combines allow rules with OR semantics and applies the complete modifier, a comment-only or read-only member could send one Boards.update with $set values for sort, members, permission, and title, make themselves the sole board administrator, expose a private board, and evict the legitimate owner; the last-admin deny rule inspected only $pull and did not block a wholesale $set of members. Version 9.89 requires sort to be the only modified field and rejects $set member arrays that remove the last active administrator. This issue is fixed in version 9.89.

"value": "Wekan es un kanban de código abierto construido con Meteor. Antes de la versión 9.89, la segunda regla Boards.allow({ update }) en server/permissions/boards.js llamaba a canUpdateBoardSort en server/lib/utils.js, lo que autorizaba a cualquier miembro del tablero siempre que fieldNames incluía sort. Debido a que Meteor combina las reglas de permiso con semántica OR y aplica el modificador completo, un miembro solo de comentarios o de solo lectura podía enviar una actualización de Boards con valores $set para sort, members, permission y title, convertirse en el único administrador del tablero, exponer un tablero privado y expulsar al propietario legítimo; la regla de denegación del último administrador inspeccionaba solo $pull y no bloqueaba un $set masivo de members. La versión 9.89 requiere que sort sea el único campo modificado y rechaza los arrays de miembros $set que eliminan al último administrador activo. Este problema está solucionado en la versión 9.89."
