# Forgejo Critical Security Release 1.18.1-0

**[Forgejo News](https://daily.dev/sources/forgejo)** · 4 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Forgejo v1.18.1-0 has been released as a critical security update addressing two Git CVEs (CVE-2022-23521 and CVE-2022-41903). Forgejo can act as an intermediary allowing attackers to reach a vulnerable git binary. Users running Forgejo as a binary should upgrade git to v2.39.1 or a patched maintenance release. Users running Forgejo container images must pull the new 1.18.1-0 image, which bundles a patched git 2.36.4 from Alpine 3.16. The Forgejo security team also notified the Gitea security team about the issue.
