Attack profile from CVSS 3.1 · CISA ADP. Fix status from CNA. Impact type from CWE-1021 and CWE-79.

Summary

Gitea from 1.27.0 through 1.27.1 renders Jupyter notebooks without sanitization directly in the main document. The notebook's language_info.name metadata is inserted into a CSS class attribute, so a malicious repository notebook can add classes that create a viewport-covering overlay (CWE-1021). A user with low privileges can make the overlay intercept clicks of another user who views the notebook. The reported impact is UI redress, and script execution was not demonstrated.

Description from the CNA

Gitea's Jupyter notebook renderer inserts the notebook's language_info.name metadata into a CSS class attribute while disabling sanitization and rendering directly in the main document without an iframe sandbox. A malicious repository notebook can supply multiple CSS classes that create a viewport-covering overlay and intercept clicks when another user views it. The reported impact is UI redress; script execution was not demonstrated.
