Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Gitea (affected versions not specified)
Description The built-in SSH server uses default configurations that advertise weak or broken key exchange, MAC, and host key algorithms. Specifically, the server supports the ecdh-sha2-nistp256, ecdh-sha2-nistp384, and ecdh-sha2-nistp521 key exchange algorithms, the hmac-sha1 MAC algorithm, and the ssh-rsa host key algorithm.
Recommendations As a temporary workaround, configure the following variables in the [server] section of the configuration file:
  • Set SSH SERVER KEY EXCHANGES to curve25519-sha256, diffie-hellman-group14-sha256.
  • Set SSH SERVER CIPHERS to chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com, aes128-ctr, aes192-ctr, aes256-ctr, aes128-gcm@openssh.com, aes256-gcm@openssh.com.
  • Set SSH SERVER MACS to hmac-sha2-256-etm@openssh.com, hmac-sha2-256. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
