Affected product
Gitea — services/repository/collaboration.go (DeleteCollaboration) + webhook delivery
Summary
When a collaborator with admin permission on a private repo creates a webhook, that webhook keeps firing
after the collaborator's access is revoked. Gitea's revocation cleanup DeleteCollaboration removes the
collaboration record, recalculates accesses, drops watches, and unassigns issues — but it does not
remove or disable webhooks the user created, and webhook delivery never re-checks whether the creator still
has repo access. The former collaborator therefore receives the full payload (issue/comment bodies, commit
data) of all future repository events at their controlled endpoint, indefinitely and invisibly.
Affected code
services/repository/collaboration.go→DeleteCollaboration()— cleans watches/assignees only; no
webhook cleanup.- Webhook delivery path — fires on repo events without re-validating the creator's current access.
Steps to reproduce
Using the provided reproduction materials:
- Attacker (admin collaborator) creates a webhook → revoke access.
- Control:
GET /api/v1/repos/admin/wh-repo(attacker) → 404. GET .../hooks→ webhook stillactive=true.- Admin creates a new issue after revocation → the catcher receives
action:"opened",
issue.title:"CRITICAL SECRET: …",issue.body(sentinel private key),repository.private:true.
(Runtime-confirmed ongitea/gitea:1.25.4. Catcher is an internal sentinel listener; the payload is a
planted sentinel, not real data; nothing is sent to any external/metadata endpoint.)
Impact
Authenticated former admin-collaborator → ongoing real-time exfiltration of private content created after
revocation; invisible to the owner; scope crosses from the application boundary to data the user should no
longer access.
Suggested remediation
- On revocation, delete/disable webhooks created by the removed collaborator (or hand them to the owner).
- Re-validate the creator's current repo access before each webhook delivery.
- At minimum, warn admins on revocation if the user created webhooks.
