{"id":"BIT-gitea-2026-97208","summary":"Gitea push mirror API bypass of DISABLE_NEW_PUSH policy","details":"The Gitea API endpoint for creating push mirrors (`POST /api/v1/repos/{owner}/{repo}/push_mirrors`) checked only whether mirroring was enabled and not the `[mirror] DISABLE_NEW_PUSH` setting that the web interface enforces. A repository administrator could therefore create new push mirrors on instances where the site administrator had disabled them. A push mirror pushes all refs of the repository to a remote chosen by the caller, on each commit or on a schedule.","aliases":["CVE-2026-97208","GHSA-8hhh-mqpg-jpxc"],"modified":"2026-10-14T11:11:04.583782567Z","published":"2026-10-14T08:43:18.694Z","database_specific":{"severity":"Medium","cpes":["cpe:2.3:a:gitea:gitea:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*"]},"references":[{"type":"ARTICLE","url":"https://blog.gitea.com/release-of-28.1.0/"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/39501"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/39507"},{"type":"ARTICLE","url":"https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/releases/tag/v28.1.0"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/security/advisories/GHSA-8hhh-mqpg-jpxc"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-97208"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"gitea","ecosystem":"Bitnami","purl":"pkg:bitnami/gitea"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"28.1.0"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/bitnami/vulndb/tree/main/data/gitea/BIT-gitea-2026-97208.json"},"severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N"}]}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
