CVE-2026-104626Gitea fork workflow job revival through later approval

Updated under an hour ago ()

Does this affect you?

It affects Gitea. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

EPSS puts the chance of exploitation in the next 30 days at 0.33%, higher than 25% of scored CVEs.

A user who can open a fork pull request can place workflow content with a shared run-level concurrency group into a Gitea Actions run that is awaiting approval. When a later run in that group cancels the blocked job, the run becomes terminal while still marked as needing approval. If a maintainer later approves the run, Gitea passed the already-cancelled job back through concurrency preparation, set it to waiting, and made it claimable by a matching runner, executing fork-controlled workflow code. Exploitation requires the maintainer's later approval action, Actions to be enabled, and a runner that accepts the repository's jobs.
