CVE-2026-58429: Gitea: Public-Only Personal access tokens scope bypass in Organization and Permission Endpoints
A personal access token restricted with the public-only scope can still retrieve private organization membership and organization permission details for its own account through organization-listing endpoints. This bypass breaks the intended guarantee that such tokens are limited to public resources only.
