A potential DOS vulnerability was discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions before before 15.2.5, all versions starting from 15.3 before 15.3.4, all versions starting from 15.4 before 15.4.1 While cloning an issue with special crafted content added to the description could have been used to trigger high CPU usage.

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

  - A potential DOS vulnerability was discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions before before 15.2.5,     all versions starting from 15.3 before 15.3.4, all versions starting from 15.4 before 15.4.1 While cloning     an issue with special crafted content added to the description could have been used to trigger high CPU     usage. (CVE-2022-3283)

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 potential DOS vulnerability was discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions before before 15.2.5,     all versions starting from 15.3 before 15.3.4, all versions starting from 15.4 before 15.4.1 While cloning     an issue with special crafted content added to the description could have been used to trigger high CPU     usage. (CVE-2022-3283)

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 04422df1-40d8-11ed-9be7-454b1dd82c64 advisory.
