Gogs, Gitea, Forgejo

I’ve been really pleased with Gogs - it’s lightweight, was simple to spin up, and has worked perfectly. But then this morning on Mastodon, there’s a post from @Codeberg.org describing a security vulnerability in their Git hosting project Forgejo. This issue also apparently affects Gitea and Gogs - what’s up with that?

I actually already did spend a bit of time comparing Gogs and Gitea before deciding on Gogs, since I’d heard of people running Gitea over the past year or so, but only seen that Gogs seemed to be popular with self-hosters in a Lemmy post I’d read. My first impression was that Gitea was more focused on CI/CD and seemed to have a more complicated install process.
