This vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker to read the bank account balance and transaction history of ActualBudget users. This vulnerability impacts all ActualBudget Server users with the SimpleFIN or Pluggy.ai integrations configured. The ActualBudget Server instance must be reachable over the network. Version 26.2.1 patches the issue.
