The Microsoft-owned subsidiary has also addressed a pair of medium-severity flaws –

CVE-2024-6337 (CVSS score: 5.9) – An authorization vulnerability was found on GitHub that allows an attacker to access the contents of private repositories. This vulnerability can be exploited by a GitHub App with “read” permission for contents and “write” permission for pull requests. The issue has been fixed in versions 3.13.3, 3.12.8, 3.11.14, and 3.10.16 of GHES.
In May, GitHub fixed a serious security issue (CVE-2024-4985, CVSS score: 10.0) that could allow unauthorized access without needing authentication.
Organizations using a vulnerable self-hosted version of GHES should update to the latest version to protect against security threats.
