Overview

Description
An improper neutralization of input vulnerability was identified in GitHub Enterprise Server that allows DOM-based cross-site scripting via Issues search label filter that could lead to privilege escalation and unauthorized workflow triggers. Successful exploitation requires an attacker to have access to the target GitHub Enterprise Server instance and to entice a user, while operating in sudo mode, to click on a crafted malicious link to perform actions that require elevated privileges. This vulnerability affected all versions of GitHub Enterprise Server prior to 3.18.1, 3.17.7, 3.16.10, 3.15.14, 3.14.19.

  1. A Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability was identified in GitHub Enterprise Server that allowed an authenticated user to access internal services bound to loopback or unspecified addresses, potentially disrupting background job processing, accessing administrative endpoints, metrics, and profiling data, or manipulating job queues. Exploitation required an authenticated user with permissions to configure webhooks (repository, organization, or GitHub App administrator privileges). This vulnerability affected all versions of GitHub Enterprise Server prior to 3.20 and was fixed in versions 3.14.22, 3.15.17, 3.16.13, 3.17.10, 3.18.4, and 3.19.1. This vulnerability was reported via the GitHub Bug Bounty program.•CVE-2026-1999
  2. A Missing Authorization vulnerability was identified in GitHub Enterprise Server that allowed an attacker to upload unauthorized content to another user’s repository migration export due to a missing authorization check in the repository migration upload endpoint. By supplying the migration identifier, an attacker could overwrite or replace a victim’s migration archive, potentially causing victims to download attacker-controlled repository data during migration restores or automated imports. An attacker would require authentication to the victim's GitHub Enterprise Server instance. This vulnerability affected all versions of GitHub Enterprise Server prior to 3.20 and was fixed in versions 3.19.2, 3.18.5, 3.17.11, 3.16.14, 3.15.18, 3.14.23. This vulnerability was reported via the GitHub Bug Bounty program.•CVE-2026-1355
  3. An URL redirection vulnerability was identified in GitHub Enterprise Server that allowed attacker-controlled redirects to leak sensitive authorization tokens. The repository_pages API insecurely followed HTTP redirects when fetching artifact URLs, preserving the authorization header containing a privileged JWT. An authenticated user could redirect these requests to an attacker-controlled domain, exfiltrate the Actions.ManageOrgs JWT, and leverage it for potential remote code execution. Attackers would require access to the target GitHub Enterprise Server instance and the ability to exploit a legacy redirect to an attacker-controlled domain. This vulnerability affected all versions of GitHub Enterprise Server prior to 3.19 and was fixed in versions 3.19.2, 3.18.4, 3.17.10, 3.16.13, 3.15.17, and 3.14.22. This vulnerability was reported via the GitHub Bug Bounty program.•CVE-2026-0573
  4. An Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation vulnerability was identified in GitHub Enterprise Server that allowed attacker controlled HTML to be rendered by the Filter component (search) across GitHub that could be used to exfiltrate sensitive information. An attacker would require permissions to create or modify the names of milestones, issues, pull requests, or similar entities that are rendered in the vulnerable filter/search components. This vulnerability affected all versions of GitHub Enterprise Server prior to 3.20 and was fixed in versions 3.19.1, and 3.18.2, 3.17.8, 3.16.11, 3.15.15, and 3.14.20. This vulnerability was reported via the GitHub Bug Bounty program.•CVE-2025-13744
  5. An improper neutralization of input vulnerability was identified in GitHub Enterprise Server that allowed user-supplied HTML to inject DOM elements with IDs that collided with server-initialized data islands. These collisions could overwrite or shadow critical application state objects used by certain Project views, leading to unintended server-side POST requests or other unauthorized backend interactions. Successful exploitation requires an attacker to have access to the target GitHub Enterprise Server instance and to entice a privileged user to view crafted malicious content that includes conflicting HTML elements. This vulnerability affected all versions of GitHub Enterprise Server prior to 3.18.3, 3.17.9, 3.16.12, 3.15.16, and 3.14.21.•CVE-2025-14046
