Exploitation Probability (EPSS)

Low risk
0.15%

4th percentile - higher than 4% of all known CVEs

Summary

POST /{owner}/{repo}/topics was registered without the sign-in middleware that provides the cross-origin protection, so a request issued by a third-party site was not rejected. A repository administrator who visited a malicious page could have the topics of their repository changed. No other repository settings were reachable through this route.

Risk Assessment

CSRF attack enabling change of repository topics without the administrator's knowledge. This may lead to unauthorized configuration modifications and mislead users.

Recommendation

Update Gitea to a version containing the fix. Consider deploying CSRF protection headers and educating administrators.
