Red Heron Exploits Gitea RCE to Compromise 13 Organizations Across Six Countries
Red Heron, a suspected Chinese threat actor, exploited a recently disclosed remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability in Gitea to compromise 13 organizations across six countries. The group scanned over 1,386 Gitea instances globally and maintained a separate dataset of 477 Taiwan-based systems as part of a coordinated campaign.
Why it matters: Organizations running internet-facing Gitea instances are under active attack; practitioners should immediately identify and patch vulnerable Gitea deployments and review access logs for signs of exploitation.
