CVE-2026-68957 [MEDIUM] – Gitea’s API and web issue-search paths do not treat restricted accounts as anonymous viewe

Gitea’s API and web issue-search paths do not treat restricted accounts as anonymous viewers when evaluating Limited-visibility repository owners. A restricted user can search and retrieve issue titles and bodies that should be hidden by the owner’s visibility policy. Keyword matching can also reveal that hidden issue content or comments contain a supplied term.
