CVE-2026-119546

MediumCVSS 5.5
Published: Updated: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

Forgejo through 15.0.11, 16.0.0 through 16.0.7, and 17.0.0 through 17.0.1 contains a path traversal vulnerability in restore-repo that allows attackers to read files outside the dump directory via crafted asset paths. Attackers can supply a dump whose release.yml DownloadURL or PatchURL contains ../ sequences, importing files like app.ini as release attachments when an administrator restores it.

Risk Assessment

Attackers can read sensitive server configuration files, potentially leading to leakage of credentials and further privilege escalation.

Recommendation

Update Forgejo to a version containing the fix. Until then, exercise caution when restoring repositories from untrusted sources.
