Summary

Gitea through 1.27.3 checks a push mirror's remote address against the migrations allow and block lists only at creation. Later synchronizations pass the stored address to git push, so names that resolve to blocked or internal addresses are still reached (CWE-918). A user with administrator access to a repository can point mirror synchronization at internal Git services and force-push the repository's contents to them.

Description from the CNA

Gitea validated a push mirror's remote address against the `[migrations]` allow and block lists only when the mirror was created. Each synchronization passed the stored address directly to `git push`, so a name that later resolved to a blocked or internal address was still reached. A user with administrator access to a repository, which includes repositories they create themselves, could aim push mirror synchronization at internal Git services and force-push the repository's contents to them.
