    Gogs path traversal flaw enables Git hooks RCE

    Mitigation Patch Update

    A June 2026 advisory described CVE-2026-52813 in Gogs, where organization names containing path traversal sequences (../) are accepted and repositories under them are written to filesystem paths following those traversals, allowing a nested Git repository structure to overwrite hooks configuration and achieve remote code execution. The issue was addressed in version 0.14.3, alongside fixes for CVE-2026-52810 and the XSS flaw tracked as GHSA-6vxv-wg6j-5qwp.
