Short explanation
CVE-2026-68964 is an information disclosure vulnerability in Gitea caused by missing profile visibility checks in user SSH and GPG key-list API endpoints. Restricted accounts can retrieve public keys, key titles, fingerprints, and GPG email addresses belonging to limited-visibility users.
This vulnerability allows low-privileged users to bypass privacy settings and access SSH and GPG key metadata belonging to other users. While private keys are not compromised, associated email addresses and key metadata are exposed.
What should be done?
- Follow vendor advisories and patch recommendations from Gitea
- Apply updates provided in the relevant pull requests and release tags
- Keep the Gitea instance updated

Show the technical text from the sources
Gitea's user SSH and GPG key-list API endpoints omit the profile visibility check applied by their web equivalents. A restricted account can retrieve public keys, key titles, fingerprints, and GPG-embedded email addresses belonging to Limited-visibility users. The disclosure concerns public key material and associated metadata, not private cryptographic keys.
