CVE-2026-58422: Gitea: Improper authorization on OAuth sign-in callback silently re-enables administrator-disabled accounts

July 21, 2026

The OAuth2 sign-in callback in Gitea 1.26.1 unconditionally re-enables a locally-disabled account whenever the user authenticates through a linked external identity provider, silently undoing any administrator-initiated Disable Account action and issuing a fresh authenticated session in the same response. Once a user has linked any external IdP, the administrator’s disable toggle becomes non-binding — the user can re-enable themselves on demand by completing one OAuth callback, regaining full read and write access to their repositories, organizations, and access tokens.
