CVE-2026-73814
PUBLISHED
CVSS 6.5 MEDIUM
Reported by Gitea · Published October 14, 2026
Gitea's collaboration access-mode endpoint accepts the Owner access mode from an authenticated repository collaborator with Admin access. The collaborator can promote their effective permissions from Admin to Owner and then perform owner-only operations, including transferring the repository to their own account. This bypasses the intended boundary between repository administration and ownership.
