### Summary Gitea has robust SSRF protection via for webhook and migration clone URLs, which validates resolved IPs at the TCP dial level. However, three code paths use raw (Go's ) which completely bypasses this protection, enabling SSRF to internal services and local file read via the scheme. ### Vulnerable Code **File: (line 32) -- Core vulnerability** **Callers in migration path:** - -- for release assets - -- for PR patches **File: (lines 312, 453)** **File: (line 306)** **Contrast with protected migration clone (same codebase):** ### PoC ### Impact - **Cloud metadata theft:** reachable via unfiltered (AWS IMDSv1 credentials, GCP tokens) - **Local file read:** scheme in reads (database credentials, JWT signing secrets, SMTP passwords) - **Internal service scanning:** Reach , , , networks - **Bypasses existing SSRF protection:** The dialer is comprehensive but only applied to webhook and clone transports -- these three paths are unprotected - Migration vectors require migration permission (admin/org owner); OAuth vector requires admin-configured custom OAuth2 source
