CVE-2026-73126

Gitea private workflow badge token scope bypass

Published Oct 14, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 4.3 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
Gitea's Actions workflow status badge endpoint does not enforce repository-read scope or the public-only restriction on the token authenticating the request. A token lacking read:repository, or restricted to public repositories, can retrieve the latest workflow status of a private repository accessible to its owner. This discloses private workflow status beyond the token's intended delegated permissions.
