Exploitation Status

Proof-of-concept exploit code exists

  • CISA’s SSVC triage found public proof-of-concept exploit code for this CVE, though no confirmed active exploitation.
  • CISA assesses this as automatable — exploitation doesn’t require manual, per-target effort, which raises the odds of mass scanning and opportunistic attacks.
  • A successful exploit gives an attacker total control of the affected component, not partial access.

Description

Summary

Due to the insufficient patch for the https://github.com/gogs/gogs/security/advisories/GHSA-wj44-9vcg-wjq7, it's still possible to update files in the .git directory and achieve remote command execution.

Details

Function UpdateRepoFile security check under some if conditions. While UpdateRepoFile call in API router will NOT match any of them. It's still possible to update .git/config file via API router. https://github.com/gogs/gogs/blob/d940e692ec58abd45e648c054d7dfd88909034ec/internal/route/api/v1/repo/contents.go#L197-L206

PoC

# add a symlink file and push to repo.
ln -s .git/config link

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

    Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for gogs.io/gogs, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

  2. Fix

    Update gogs.io/gogs to 0.13.4 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2025-64111 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.

  4. How O3 protects you

    O3 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like CVE-2025-64111 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.

Tailored to CVE-2025-64111. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
