CVE-2023-49946: Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource

December 3, 2023 (updated December 7, 2023)

In Forgejo before 1.20.5-1, certain endpoints do not check whether an object belongs to a repository for which permissions are being checked. This allows remote attackers to read private issues, read private pull requests, delete issues, and perform other unauthorized actions.
