SCA: security update for gogs.io/gogs (GHSA-vcm5-gvmp-78mp)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 443812

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, in new_form.tmpl, milestone names are
 rendered with Go's default auto-escaping ({{.Name}}), which converts < to &lt; etc. This prevents direct
 HTML injection. However, when the browser renders the DOM, the text content of the element contains the
 decoded original payload. Semantic UI 2.4.2's dropdown component has preserveHTML: true as the default
 setting. When a user selects a dropdown item, the internal set.text() method calls jQuery's .html() with
 the item's text content. This re-parses the decoded text as HTML, creating the injected element and
 triggering the JavaScript event handler. An attacker can store an HTML/JavaScript payload in a milestone
 name, and when any user opens the New Issue page and interacts with the milestone dropdown, the payload
 executes in their browser via Semantic UI's preserveHTML behavior. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.14.3.
 (CVE-2026-52807)

Solution

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