Overview

CVE-2026-52814 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on June 24, 2026.

Technical description

Gogs is an open source self-hosted Git service. Prior to 0.14.3, the Gogs built-in Go SSH server is vulnerable to an unauthenticated, asymmetric Denial of Service (DoS) attack. The application accepts inbound TCP connections and passes them to golang.org/x/crypto/ssh.NewServerConn inside a new goroutine without enforcing any read/write deadlines on the underlying net.Conn. An unauthenticated attacker can open multiple TCP connections to the SSH port and simply withhold the SSH protocol banner. This forces the server to spawn an unbounded number of goroutines that block indefinitely waiting for socket I/O. This leads to complete File Descriptor (FD) exhaustion, preventing legitimate users from accessing the Git SSH service, and ultimately destabilizing the entire Gogs process (e.g., causing internal log rotation failures). This vulnerability is fixed in 0.14.3.
