CVE-2022-31038 (GCVE-0-2022-31038)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2022-06-08 17:40 – Updated: 2025-04-23 18:18

Summary

Gogs is an open source self-hosted Git service. In versions of gogs prior to 0.12.9 `DisplayName` does not filter characters input from users, which leads to an XSS vulnerability when directly displayed in the issue list. This issue has been resolved in commit 155cae1d which sanitizes `DisplayName` prior to display to the user. All users of gogs are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade should check their users' display names for malicious characters.
