Upgrade Minimos:latest gitea-fips to version 28.1.0-r0 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gitea-fips package and not the gitea-fips package as distributed by Minimos.
See How to fix? for Minimos:latest relevant fixed versions and status.
The Gitea push mirror API checked whether the repository owner, instead of the requesting user, may use local file system paths. On instances with [security] IMPORT_LOCAL_PATHS = true, a repository administrator who is not allowed to import local paths could add a push mirror to a local path on the server when the repository owner has that permission. Gitea then pushed the repository's refs into an existing Git repository at that path with the permissions of the Gitea process.
