An Incorrect Authorization vulnerability was identified in GitHub Enterprise Server that allowed a GitHub App with only content: read and pull_request_write: write permissions to read issue content inside a private repository. This was only exploitable via user access token and installation access token was not impacted. This vulnerability affected all versions of GitHub Enterprise Server prior to 3.14 and was fixed in versions 3.13.3, 3.12.8, 3.11.14 and 3.10.16. This vulnerability was reported via the GitHub Bug Bounty program.
The product performs an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action, but it does not correctly perform the check.
