CVE-2026-58508: CWE-284 in Gitea Gitea Open Source Git Server
CVE-2026-58508 is a critical security vulnerability in the Gitea Open Source Git Server involving two server-side request forgery (SSRF) issues in the migration/mirror functionality. These SSRF vulnerabilities stem from DNS rebinding and missing re-validation mechanisms, potentially allowing an attacker to cause unauthorized requests from the server. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 9.1, indicating high impact on confidentiality and integrity without requiring privileges or user interaction.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves two SSRF flaws in Gitea's migration and mirror features. Specifically, the issues arise due to DNS rebinding attacks combined with missing re-validation of requests, which can be exploited remotely without authentication. The CVSS vector indicates network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, no user interaction, unchanged scope, and high confidentiality and integrity impact. No patch or official remediation information is currently available, and no known exploits in the wild have been reported.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to make unauthorized requests from the Gitea server, potentially accessing internal resources or sensitive data, leading to a high impact on confidentiality and integrity. There is no indication of availability impact. The vulnerability does not require authentication or user interaction, increasing its risk.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, users should monitor Gitea's security advisories for updates. No vendor-provided mitigation or workaround information is currently available.
