CVE-2026-129525
Gitea pull request disclosure to members with access to issues only
Description
Several endpoints that work on both issues and pull requests did not check which of the two the addressed item is. A user who can read a repository's issues but not its pull requests could read pull request data through the issue sub-resources of the API (timeline, attachments, labels, subscriptions, tracked times and reactions), and list pull requests through the repository's issue search and milestone pages; the same applied in the other direction. These endpoints now check read access to the unit the item belongs to. The API endpoints were fixed in 28.2.0 and 28.3.0, the search and milestone pages in 28.4.0.
