A holder of a writable deploy key could create protected tags without being on the tag allow list and change repository visibility through push options, for example making a private repository public. Pull requests created through the AGit flow with a deploy key were also attributed to the owner.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-10-06T19:24:55.742+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-07T14:21:39.95+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"gitea.dev","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"vendor\": \"Gitea\",\n                    \"product\": \"Gitea\",\n                    \"packageName\": \"gitea.dev\",\n                    \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\",\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"0\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\",\n                            \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"1.27.3\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"}],"metrics":[],"references":["https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/security/advisories/GHSA-7769-9pr9-m24h","https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/37306","https://blog.gitea.com/release-of-28.0.0/","https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/releases/tag/v28.0.0"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-79960","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-79960","identifiers":["CVE-2026-79960"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[]}
