Description

Vikunja is an open-source self-hosted task management platform. Prior to version 2.2.2, the `LinkSharing.ReadAll()` method allows link share authenticated users to list all link shares for a project, including their secret hashes. While `LinkSharing.CanRead()` correctly blocks link share users from reading individual shares via `ReadOne`, the `ReadAllWeb` handler bypasses this check by never calling `CanRead()`. An attacker with a read-only link share can retrieve hashes for write or admin link shares on the same project and authenticate with them, escalating to full admin access. Version 2.2.2 patches the issue.
