Technical details
An authorization bypass (CWE-639) exists in the gitlist plugin of HAX CMS. The vulnerability stems from the fact that git repositories are indexed by the site owner's User ID and exposed via a predictable URL endpoint (/<UserID>/gitlist/) that does not enforce authentication. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can discover or guess a User ID to browse git repositories and full commit history. This exposure can lead to the disclosure of source code and sensitive credentials or secrets previously committed to the repository. The issue is resolved in version 26.0.0.
