A cross-site scripting issue has been discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions prior to 15.3.5, 15.4 prior to 15.4.4, and 15.5 prior to 15.5.2. It was possible to exploit a vulnerability in setting the labels colour feature which could lead to a stored XSS that allowed attackers to perform arbitrary actions on behalf of victims at client side.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - A cross-site scripting issue has been discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions prior to 15.3.5,     15.4 prior to 15.4.4, and 15.5 prior to 15.5.2. It was possible to exploit a vulnerability in setting the     labels colour feature which could lead to a stored XSS that allowed attackers to perform arbitrary actions     on behalf of victims at client side. (CVE-2022-3265)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

The version of GitLab installed on the remote host is affected by a vulnerability, as follows:

  - A cross-site scripting issue has been discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions prior to 15.3.5,     15.4 prior to 15.4.4, and 15.5 prior to 15.5.2.

(CVE-2022-3265)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 16f7ec68-5cce-11ed-9be7-454b1dd82c64 advisory.
