CVE-2026-28737 Details
Description
Gitea versions from 1.25.0 before 1.26.0 allow stored cross-site scripting through the extensionsRequired field in glTF files rendered by the 3D file viewer.
A stored cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in Gitea versions 1.25.0 prior to 1.26.0. This issue arises in the built-in 3D file viewer, which uses the Online3DViewer library. The vulnerability allows an attacker to inject malicious scripts through the 'extensionsRequired' field of glTF files. When such a file is viewed, the injected script is executed in the context of the user, potentially leading to account takeover.
Users can upgrade to Gitea version 1.26.0, which addresses this vulnerability by sanitizing the error messages before they are inserted into the DOM, preventing the execution of injected scripts.
