An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-56654 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- code.gitea.io/gitea (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 1.27.0\n- code.gitea.io/gitea (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 1.27.0\n- gitea.dev (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 1.27.0\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-2026-56654/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-56654/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-56654","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-56654/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-56654","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-683j-3ff6-hh2x","GO-2026-6034","MINI-7g7m-7jcf-g3m7","MINI-vcf9-mwvv-m7qf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Gitea Git Server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can escalate privileges by manipulating access token scopes in the Gitea API, requiring an upgrade to mitigate.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Gitea","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-284","name":"Improper Access Control"}],"description":"Privilege Escalation via Access Token Scope Escalation in API","ecosystems":["Go"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Privilege Escalation via Access Token Scope Escalation in API","id":"CVE-2026-56654","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Go","product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2026"},"n_packages":3,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Gitea SSH Key Parser Denial of Service","id":"CVE-2026-56657"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.27.0"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"code.gitea.io/gitea","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-683j-3ff6-hh2x"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.27.0"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"code.gitea.io/gitea","purl":"pkg:golang/code.gitea.io/gitea","source":"GHSA-683j-3ff6-hh2x"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.27.0"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"gitea.dev","purl":"pkg:golang/gitea.dev","source":"GO-2026-6034"}],"prev":{"headline":"Formula Injection in dool project","id":"CVE-2026-56652"},"products":["Gitea Open Source Git Server"],"published":"2026-08-13","related":[],"sources":[{"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":"CC BY 4.0","name":"Go Vulnerability Database","prefix":"GO"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-14","vendors":["Gitea"]},"summary":"Attackers can escalate privileges by manipulating access token scopes in the Gitea API, requiring an upgrade to mitigate.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-56654/"}
