Description

A flaw was found in Gerrit. An authenticated attacker with force push permissions on a secondary branch can exploit an incorrect authorization vulnerability within the "submitted together" feature. By crafting a submission that matches the "topic" tag of an unapproved change, the attacker can bypass code review. This allows them to forcefully submit code to restricted branches, potentially leading to unauthorized changes in the codebase.
