SCA: security update for gogs.io/gogs (GHSA-w6j9-vw59-27wv)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 443751

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Gogs is an open source self-hosted Git service. Prior to 0.14.3, when ENABLE_REVERSE_PROXY_AUTHENTICATION
 is enabled, Gogs accepts the configured authentication header (default: X-WEBAUTH-USER) directly from
 client requests without validating that the request originated from a trusted reverse proxy. Any remote
 attacker who can reach the Gogs service can forge this header to impersonate any user or trigger automatic
 account creation, completely bypassing authentication. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.14.3.
 (CVE-2026-25119)

Solution

Update the gogs.io/gogs library and its related packages to version 0.14.3 or later.
