Docker Swarm configs are IMMUTABLE — only labels can be updated. The config is
named ${STACK_NAME}_app_ini_${APP_INI_VERSION}, so when app.ini.tmpl's rendered
content changes the version suffix MUST be bumped, otherwise abra tries to mutate
the existing object and the deploy aborts:
FATA failed to update config <stack>_app_ini_v22: Error response from daemon:
rpc error: code = InvalidArgument desc = only updates to Labels are allowed
'BREAKING CHANGE: remove forgejo' (6a0339d) edited app.ini.tmpl —
-{{ if or (eq (env "FORGE") "forgejo") (eq (env "GITEA_LFS_START_SERVER") "true") }}
+{{ if (eq (env "GITEA_LFS_START_SERVER") "true") }}
— but left APP_INI_VERSION at v22 (unchanged since the LFS commit 357926f), and
3.6.2+1.27.1-rootless shipped that way. Every existing deployment upgrading ACROSS
the forgejo removal therefore fails at 'initialising deployment'; reproduced on a
live 3.6.1+1.26.2-rootless -> 3.6.2+1.27.1-rootless upgrade.
Bumping to v23 makes Swarm create a NEW config object instead of mutating v22. The
orphaned v22 object can be pruned after the rollout. Only app.ini.tmpl changed, so
DOCKER_SETUP_SH_VERSION and PG_BACKUP_VERSION stay put.
Note: cc-ci's upgrade tier did not catch this because it resolved the upgrade base
to main-tip, which ALREADY contains the forgejo removal — base and head then render
identical app.ini and no config update is attempted. Real deployments upgrade from
the last published RELEASE (3.6.1+1.26.2), which is where the break appears.
Fixes two critical Gitea CVEs, both CVSS 9.8, both remediated in 1.27.1:
- CVE-2026-60004: RCE via POST /api/v1/repos/{owner}/{repo}/diffpatch — a patch
submitted twice triggers an add/add conflict that writes an executable
post-index-change hook into $GIT_DIR/hooks/, which git then runs as the Gitea
service account. Affects 1.17-1.27.0; public PoC.
- CVE-2026-59774: unauthenticated arbitrary file read via Org-mode #+INCLUDE
accepting absolute paths through the markup renderer (affects 1.22.1-1.27.0),
escalating to RCE by reading config/tokens.
Based on current upstream main, so it includes the BREAKING CHANGE: remove forgejo
work; the previous branch predated it and was verified against a tree that would
not have deployed. Version label left at 3.6.0+1.24.2-rootless per upgrade-PR
convention (operator runs abra recipe release).
