    "summary": "### Duplicate Advisory This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-m469-88xx-8rx2. This link is maintained to preserve external references. ### Original Description Vikunja before 2.6.0 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in CalDAV BasicAuth endpoints that lack rate limiting protection. Remote unauthenticated attackers can issue unbounded credential-guessing requests against /dav, /.well-known, and /feeds routes to bypass the instance's anti-brute-force controls and compromise password-only accounts.",
