AnalysisAIv1 – Mar 12, 2026

Wekan versions 8.31.0 through 8.33 expose global webhook configurations including sensitive URLs and authentication tokens through an unauthenticated server-side publication, allowing any network-based attacker to retrieve webhook credentials without authentication. An attacker exploiting this vulnerability could hijack webhook integrations and gain unauthorized access to connected external services. The vulnerability has been patched in version 8.34.

DescriptionGitHub Advisory

Wekan is an open source kanban tool built with Meteor. In versions 8.31.0 through 8.33, the globalwebhooks publication exposes all global webhook integrations-including sensitive url and token fields-without performing any authentication check on the server side. Although the subscription is normally invoked from the admin settings page, the server-side publication has no access control, meaning any DDP client, including unauthenticated ones, can subscribe and receive the data. This allows an unauthenticated attacker to retrieve global webhook URLs and authentication tokens, potentially enabling unauthorized use of those webhooks and access to connected external services. This issue has been fixed in version 8.34.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Wekan instances (versions 8.31.0-8.33) expose webhook credentials and URLs to unauthenticated users, allowing attackers to compromise integrated third-party systems and exfiltrate sensitive data. This affects any organization using Wekan for project management with configured webhooks, potentially compromising downstream applications like Slack, email systems, or custom APIs.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

Apply vendor patch. If immediate patching is not feasible: (1) Restrict network access to Wekan instances to authenticated VPN/internal networks only, (2) Disable webhook functionality entirely until patch applied, (3) Implement WAF rules to block requests to the globalwebhooks publication endpoint, (4) Rotate all webhook credentials immediately and monitor for unauthorized access patterns.

Attack Technique

Authentication bypass attacks exploit flaws in the verification mechanisms that control access to systems and applications.

Information disclosure occurs when an application unintentionally exposes sensitive data that aids attackers in reconnaissance or directly compromises security.
