CVE-2025-64719: Gogs: Denial of Service in repository/wiki file listing web pages

Gogs is an open source self-hosted Git service. Prior to 0.14.3, a malicious user with rights to create a new file on a repository or wiki page can trigger a denial of service condition in which the pages containing the listing of files will return HTTP error 500 and render the web interface unusable for the repository or wiki. The issue is present in file internal/route/repo/wiki.go and internal/route/repo/view.go where the pages try to recover commit information. If errors are returned while recovering commit information, the page will return a 500 error and stop rendering, resulting in a denial of service. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.14.3.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

CVE-2025-64719 can make parts of a Gogs repository or wiki web interface stop working. An authorized user who can create a file can trigger HTTP 500 errors on file listing pages. This affects Gogs versions before 0.14.3 and is fixed in 0.14.3.

Executive priority

Treat as a moderate availability issue. Prioritize patching shared or business-critical Gogs instances, especially where many users have write access. This is not described as data theft or remote unauthenticated compromise in the provided sources.

Technical view

Gogs before 0.14.3 mishandles errors while recovering commit information in repository and wiki file listing paths. The affected code is reported in internal/route/repo/wiki.go and internal/route/repo/view.go. The impact is denial of service for affected listing pages, with no confidentiality or integrity impact reported.

Likely exposure

Exposure is limited to self-hosted Gogs instances running versions earlier than 0.14.3. The attacker must already have rights to create a new file in a repository or wiki page, so risk is higher in environments with many contributors or broad write permissions.

Exploitation context

The provided sources do not report active exploitation, and this CVE is not marked as KEV. The attack is network reachable through the web application but requires high privileges. Successful exploitation affects availability of repository or wiki file listing pages.

Researcher notes

CVSS is 4.9 with AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H. The advisory maps the issue to CWE-20. The main validation focus is version exposure, contributor permissions, and whether file listing pages return 500 errors after commit information recovery failures.

Mitigation direction

  • Upgrade Gogs to version 0.14.3 or later.
  • Review and limit repository and wiki file creation permissions until upgraded.
  • Check the GitHub advisory for any additional vendor guidance.

Validation and detection

  • Inventory all self-hosted Gogs instances and record versions.
  • Confirm affected instances are upgraded to 0.14.3 or later.
  • Review which users can create repository or wiki files.
  • Monitor for repeated HTTP 500 errors on repository or wiki listing pages.
