Description
A missing authorization vulnerability was identified in GitHub Enterprise Server that allowed an authenticated user to read source code from private repositories they did not have access to. The
Copilot pull request description diff summary endpoint accepted a cross-repository comparison range and rendered the resulting diff without verifying that the requesting user was authorized to view
the target repository. Exploitation required an authenticated account on the instance with read access to at least one repository to use as the comparison base. This vulnerability affected all
versions of GitHub Enterprise Server prior to 3.21 and was fixed in versions 3.17.17, 3.18.11, 3.19.8, and 3.20.4. This vulnerability was reported via the GitHub Bug Bounty program.
