CVE-2026-104632
8.8 HIGHpublic exploit availablePublished 2026-10-06 · Updated 2026-10-07
AI risk analysis
- Summary
- The flaw allows a user with Actions write access to bypass the approval requirement by canceling and re-running a workflow, potentially leading to unauthorized execution of code from a fork pull request.
- Exploitability
- Exploitation is relatively easy given the required Actions write access and the routine nature of canceling and re-running stale fork checks.
- Blast radius
- If exploited, the flaw could lead to unauthorized execution of code on the repository's runners, potentially compromising the integrity and security of the repository.
- Detection
- No reliable host or network indicator is derivable from the published description.
- Prioritized remediation
- Disable the rerun feature for workflow runs from first-time fork pull request contributors until a maintainer approves the run.

NVD description
Gitea Actions blocks the jobs of workflow runs from first-time fork pull request contributors until a maintainer approves the run. The rerun path only required a run to be finished and built the new attempt's jobs without considering the pending approval, so when a user with Actions write access cancelled a run that was awaiting approval and then re-ran it, the new jobs were created as waiting rather than blocked while the run still recorded that approval was required. Cancelling and re-running stale fork checks is a routine action that does not involve the approval control, so where Actions is enabled and a matching runner is registered, workflow code taken from the fork pull request head could run on the repository's runners without an explicit approval.
