GLSA-202210-14

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-202210-14 (Gitea: Multiple Vulnerabilities)

  - Cross-site Scripting (XSS) - Stored in GitHub repository go-gitea/gitea prior to 1.16.9. (CVE-2022-1928)

  - An attacker may cause a denial of service by crafting an Accept-Language header which ParseAcceptLanguage     will take significant time to parse. (CVE-2022-32149)

  - In Gitea before 1.16.9, it was possible for users to add existing issues to projects. Due to improper     access controls, an attacker could assign any issue to any project in Gitea (there was no permission check     for fetching the issue). As a result, the attacker would get access to private issue titles.
    (CVE-2022-38183)

  - Gitea before 1.17.3 does not sanitize and escape refs in the git backend. Arguments to git commands are     mishandled. (CVE-2022-42968)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
