**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** CGit versions prior to 0.12 **Description** The issue allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary HTTP headers and conduct HTTP response splitting attacks or cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via CRLF sequences in the `mimetype` parameter. This is demonstrated by a request to "blob/cgit.c", which exploits the vulnerability in the ui-blob handler. **Recommendations** For versions prior to 0.12, update to version 0.12 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the ui-blob handler or avoiding the use of the `mimetype` parameter in requests to "blob/cgit.c" until the issue is resolved.
