CVE-2026-24775: OpenProject has Forced Actions, Content Spoofing, and Persistent DoS via ID Manipulation in OpenProject Blocknote Editor Extension

OpenProject is an open-source, web-based project management software. In the new editor for collaborative documents based on BlockNote, OpenProject maintainers added a custom extension in OpenProject version 17.0.0 that allows to mention OpenProject work packages in the document. To show work package details, the editor loads details about the work package via the OpenProject API. For this API call, the extension to the BlockNote editor did not properly validate the given work package ID to be only a number. This allowed an attacker to generate a document with relative links that upon opening could make arbitrary `GET` requests to any URL within the OpenProject instance. This issue was patched in version version 0.0.22 of op-blocknote-extensions, which was shipped with OpenProject 17.0.2. If users cannot update immediately to version 17.0.2 of OpenProject, administrators can disable collaborative document editing in Settings -> Documents -> Real time collaboration -> Disable.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

OpenProject 17.0.0 through before 17.0.2 has a document editor flaw. A user-created collaborative document can trigger unwanted internal GET requests inside the same OpenProject instance when another user opens it. The main business risk is disruption of availability, with limited integrity impact. The vendor shipped a fix in OpenProject 17.0.2.

Executive priority

Treat as a near-term patching item for affected OpenProject 17.0.x deployments. Prioritize systems with broad user access or heavy collaborative document use. The issue is not described as remotely unauthenticated or actively exploited in the provided sources.

Technical view

The vulnerable op-blocknote-extensions work package mention feature failed to validate that a work package ID was numeric. A low-privileged attacker could craft a document containing relative links that cause arbitrary GET requests within the OpenProject instance when opened. CVSS is 6.3: network attack vector, low complexity, privileges required, and user interaction required.

Likely exposure

Exposure appears limited to OpenProject deployments running versions >= 17.0.0 and < 17.0.2 with collaborative document editing enabled. The issue requires an authenticated attacker and a victim opening the crafted collaborative document.

Exploitation context

The provided sources do not report active exploitation, and the CVE is not listed as KEV. Exploitation requires privileges to create or modify a collaborative document and user interaction from another user. Impact includes forced actions, content spoofing, and potentially persistent denial of service within OpenProject.

Researcher notes

Root cause is improper validation of a work package ID in the BlockNote editor extension. Scope is same OpenProject instance via relative URLs. Avoid assuming impact beyond GET requests and documented availability/integrity effects unless confirmed by vendor analysis.

Mitigation direction

  • Upgrade OpenProject to version 17.0.2 or later.
  • Confirm op-blocknote-extensions is updated to version 0.0.22 or later.
  • If unable to upgrade, disable collaborative document editing in OpenProject settings.
  • Monitor vendor advisory updates for any additional guidance.

Validation and detection

  • Inventory OpenProject instances and record exact versions.
  • Check whether collaborative document editing is enabled.
  • Review package or release metadata for op-blocknote-extensions version 0.0.22 or later.
  • Review logs for unusual internal GET activity after collaborative documents are opened.
