CVE-2026-89094
CriticalCVSS 9.9Summary
Forgejo before 16.0.4 allows remote code execution via a crafted template repository because template expansion on files in .forgejo/template is mishandled.
Risk Assessment
An attacker could create a malicious template repository and achieve arbitrary code execution on the Forgejo server, potentially leading to full instance compromise.
Recommendation
Upgrade Forgejo to version 16.0.4 or later and restrict template repository creation to trusted users.
Other vulnerabilities in Forgejo
See all- CVE-2025-68937Critical
Forgejo before 13.0.2 allows attackers to write to unintended files, and possibly obtain server shell access, because of mishandling of out-of-repository symlink destinations for template repositories. This is also fixed for 11 LTS in 11.0.7 and later.
- CVE-2026-82556Medium
Vulnerability in Forgejo up to 15.0.4 in the net.LookupIP function of is_migrate_allowed.go allows remote server-side request forgery (SSRF). The attack can be initiated remotely, and the exploit is public.
- CVE-2026-59102Medium
Forgejo before version 15.0.3 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in other users' browsers by setting a full name containing an HTML payload and triggering an Actions run. When the DEFAULT_SHOW_FULL_NAME option is enabled, the run description is assembled server-side with the user's display name interpolated into an HTML string via a translation function that does not escape its arguments, and the frontend renders the result using a Vue v-html binding, causing script execution for any user who views the affected Actions run page.
