1.24.7Release

We are excited to announce the release of Gitea version 1.24.7! We strongly recommend all users upgrade to this version for improved stability and security.

This release includes 7 merged pull requests, thanks to the amazing contributions from our community.

Security

This release addresses several important security vulnerabilities:

  • LFS Authentication Bypass

A user without valid credentials could upload or download LFS files by submitting a malformed JWT token. Thanks to Scott Tolley from Black Duck for reporting this issue, and to @wxiaoguang for the fix in https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/35708.

  • Arbitrary File Access via Malicious Template Repositories

An authenticated user could create a crafted template repository that processes arbitrary files on the filesystem. Thanks to Clément Hamada for reporting this issue, and to @wxiaoguang for the fix in https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/35708.

  • Invalidated OAuth2 Tokens Still Accepted

An invalidated OAuth2 token could incorrectly pass validation. Thanks to TIA for reporting this issue, and to @lunny for the fix in https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/35655.
