An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-28991 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- github.com/go-gitea/gitea (Go): affected from 0.9.99; fixed in 1.12.6\n- github.com/go-gitea/gitea (Go): affected from 0.9.99; fixed in 1.12.6\n- gitea (Bitnami): affected from 0.9.99; fixed in 1.12.6\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-28991/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-28991/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-28991","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-28991/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-28991","record":{"aliases":["BIT-gitea-2020-28991","GHSA-r7h7-chh4-5rvm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Gitea Git hosting","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass git protocol restrictions by injecting newlines into URLs, potentially accessing internal network resources.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"ssrf"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"gitea","vendor":"gitea"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"Gitea 0.9.99 through 1.12.x before 1.12.6 does not prevent a git protocol path that specifies a TCP port number and also contains newlines (with URL encoding) in ParseRemoteAddr in modules/auth/repo_form.go.","ecosystems":["Bitnami","Go"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Improper Access Control in Gitea","id":"CVE-2020-28991","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","product":"gitea:gitea","products":["gitea:gitea"],"type":"ssrf","year":"2020"},"n_packages":3,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-28993"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","fixed":["1.12.6"],"introduced":["0.9.99"],"last_affected":[],"package":"gitea","purl":"pkg:bitnami/gitea","source":"BIT-gitea-2020-28991"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.12.6"],"introduced":["0.9.99"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/go-gitea/gitea","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-r7h7-chh4-5rvm"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.12.6"],"introduced":["0.9.99"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/go-gitea/gitea","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/go-gitea/gitea","source":"GHSA-r7h7-chh4-5rvm"}],"prev":{"headline":"Improper Input Validation in SPIP","id":"CVE-2020-28984"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2020-11-24","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Gitea Code Injection","id":"CVE-2026-60004","kev_date_added":"2026-08-25","published":"2026-08-26"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Gitea WebAuthn bypass during OAuth and OIDC sign-in","id":"CVE-2026-73278","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Gitea fork workflow approval bypass through maintainer-triggered events","id":"CVE-2026-94205","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Gitea vulnerable to Argument Injection","id":"CVE-2022-42968","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-10-16"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Improper Privilege Management in Gitea","id":"CVE-2021-45330","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-09"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Reuse of one time passwords allowed in Gitea","id":"CVE-2021-45331","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-09"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Capture-replay in Gitea","id":"CVE-2021-45327","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-08"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"Apache-2.0","name":"Bitnami","prefix":"BIT"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-04","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass git protocol restrictions by injecting newlines into URLs, potentially accessing internal network resources.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-28991/"}
