Actual

Actual is a local-first personal finance tool. Prior to 26.6.0, exportToCSV and exportQueryToCSV in packages/loot-core/src/server/transactions/export/export-to-csv.ts pass user-controlled Payee, Notes, Account, and Category strings to csv-stringify with no cast callback and no formula-prefix neutralization. Strings that begin with equals sign, plus, minus, at sign, tab, or carriage return survive verbatim into the exported CSV, and when a recipient opens the file in Excel, LibreOffice Calc, or Google Sheets, the strings are interpreted as formulas, enabling transaction data exfiltration and attacker-chosen spreadsheet display values. This issue is fixed in version 26.6.0.

Actual is an open-source personal finance application. Prior to 26.7.0, a missing authorization issue allows a shared user with user_access on a budget file to perform owner-only file management actions. A non-owner shared user can call file-management endpoints intended for higher-privilege users, including /delete-user-file, /reset-user-file, and /user-create-key, because requireFileAccess treats ordinary shared access as sufficient for file-management operations that should be restricted to the file owner or an administrator. This issue is fixed in version 26.7.0.

Actual is a local-first personal finance app. Prior to 26.6.0, in OpenID multi-user mode, disabling a user only blocks future OpenID login for that identity, while existing Actual session tokens for the disabled user remain valid. The shared session validation path accepts any existing token row that has not expired without checking whether the associated user is still enabled, allowing a disabled user to continue calling authenticated server endpoints. This issue is fixed in version 26.6.0.

Actual is a local-first personal finance tool. Prior to 26.6.0, the GET /secret/:name endpoint in @actual-app/sync-server checks only that the caller has a valid session and does not verify the caller is an admin, while the sibling POST /secret/ handler enforces an admin check in OpenID mode. Any authenticated non-admin BASIC user in OpenID multi-user deployments can probe the secrets store and learn which admin-managed bank-sync integrations have been configured, including simplefin_accessKey, pluggyai_clientSecret, pluggyai_itemIds, and the gocardless secrets. This issue is fixed in version 26.6.0.

Actual is a local-first personal finance app. Prior to 26.6.0, @actual-app/cli ships a hand-rolled CSV serializer in packages/cli/src/output.ts used whenever the global --format csv option is passed, whose escapeCsv helper only handles RFC 4180 delimiter, quote, and newline escaping and does not neutralize standard CSV formula-injection prefixes. Any CLI command that streams an object array containing user-controlled strings, including transactions list, accounts list, payees list, categories list, tags list, category-groups list, rules list, schedules list, and query, can emit cells that auto-evaluate when the resulting CSV is opened in Excel, LibreOffice Calc, or Google Sheets, enabling data exfiltration and arbitrary formula execution. This issue is fixed in version 26.6.0.
