CVE-2026-104633 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 6.5/10 on the CVSS scale. When migrating a repository from another Gitea instance, Gitea used the page size reported in the source server's API settings to end its paginated downloads. A source that reported `max_response_items` as `0` made these loops run indefinitely and grow server memory until it was exhausted. EPSS estimates a 0.17% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Description

When migrating a repository from another Gitea instance, Gitea used the page size reported in the source server's API settings to end its paginated downloads.

Any user who can migrate repositories could point a migration at a server they control and cause a denial of service.
