CVE-2026-110324

Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.

Description

The visibility check of Gitea user profiles was applied to GET requests only, while `POST /{username}` (follow and unfollow) required only a signed-in user. Any authenticated user could therefore obtain the full name, location, website and description of a user with a private profile from the response. The issue was fixed in 28.1.0 and disclosed with 28.2.0.
