Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in the /api/webhook endpoint when processing Gogs push event payloads. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted webhook request to cause a denial of service.

With the default configuration, exploitation is possible when no webhook.gogs.secret is set, and the crafted JSON sets commits[].repo to null or omits it.


Remediation
