CRITICAL 9.8 CVE-2026-59774 Published 14 Oct 2026

Gitea Org-Mode Markup File Disclosure Vulnerability

Worried this affects your website?

Gitea's Org-mode markup renderer processes INCLUDE directives supplied to the repository markup endpoint without preventing access to server-side files, leading to a server-side file disclosure vulnerability.

An unauthenticated attacker can use a suitable public repository to read files accessible to the Gitea service account.

  • Precondition: a suitable public repository is available.
  • Impact: disclosure of server-side files, including app.ini and its INTERNAL_TOKEN.
  • Further impact: with internal logger access, the attacker can modify a Git hook and execute commands as the Gitea service account.
