Technical details

An Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerability exists in WeKan's checklist API routes (e.g., /api/boards/:boardId/cards/:cardId/checklists/:checklistId). The application fails to validate the relationship between the boardId and the cardId provided in the request. By manipulating these identifiers, an attacker can perform unauthorized actions on checklists across different boards. This bypasses intended authorization controls, allowing for the creation or deletion of checklists on cards that do not belong to the specified board. The issue is addressed in version 8.19 by implementing proper relationship verification between cards and boards.
