description
Gitea user API routes can fail to enforce visibility restrictions for target accounts. An authenticated attacker may obtain user relationship data, repository-interest information, or published key material for accounts they should not be able to view. Exploitation requires an authenticated Gitea account.
mitigation
Upgrade Gitea to 1.27.3 or 28.0.0, as appropriate for your release line. Restrict access to the affected user API endpoints until upgrades are complete.
fixed in 1.27.3
outcome
Contextual: an exploit technique exists, but no deterministic check could cover this one.
