Vulnerability description
DayBreach CVE AI Research
CVE-2026-70396 has vendor, distribution, patch and security-source records on file. We can compare them and prepare an explanation linked to the evidence.
Gitea's organization repository-creation API requires write:organization but omits the write:repository token scope enforced by other repository-creation routes. A personal access token or OAuth application token without repository-write scope can therefore create organization-owned repositories if the authorizing user has permission to do so. This bypasses the token's delegated scope boundary while remaining subject to the user's organization permissions.
