What fixes it

No source in this snapshot names a fixed version. The vendor advisories under References are the place to check.

Description

The visibility check of Gitea user profiles was applied to GET requests only, while POST /{username} (follow and unfollow) required only a signed-in user. Any authenticated user could therefore obtain the full name, location, website and description of a user with a private profile from the response. The issue was fixed in 28.1.0 and disclosed with 28.2.0.
