Summary
Vikunja before 2.7.1 lets authenticated users learn whether private teams exist. By sending DELETE requests to the team member self-removal endpoint with arbitrary team ids, an attacker reads distinguishable responses that reveal whether a team exists, is SSO-managed, or has a single member. The flaw is an observable response discrepancy (CWE-204), and an attacker needs only a low-privileged account.

Description from the CNA
Vikunja before 2.7.1 contains an information disclosure vulnerability that allows authenticated users to determine whether private teams exist by calling the team member self-removal endpoint. Attackers can send DELETE requests to /teams/{id}/members/{own username} for arbitrary team ids and use the distinguishable responses to learn if a team exists, is SSO-managed, or has a single member.
