CVE-2026-97204

LOW 3.1

Published 2026-10-18 · Last modified 2026-10-19

Deleting a label compared the ID of the repository in the request against the organization ID of organization labels, and the two ID sequences overlap. A user with write access to the issues of a repository could therefore delete the labels of an organization that has the same numeric ID as that repository. Labels are now deleted only within their own repository or organization.
