An issue has been discovered in GitLab EE/CE affecting all versions starting before 16.3.6, all versions starting from 16.4 before 16.4.2, all versions starting from 16.5 before 16.5.1 which allows an attackers to block Sidekiq job processor.

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

  - An issue has been discovered in GitLab EE/CE affecting all versions starting before 16.3.6, all versions     starting from 16.4 before 16.4.2, all versions starting from 16.5 before 16.5.1 which allows an attackers     to block Sidekiq job processor. (CVE-2023-3246)

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

  - An issue has been discovered in GitLab EE/CE affecting all versions starting before 16.3.6, all versions     starting from 16.4 before 16.4.2, all versions starting from 16.5 before 16.5.1 which allows an attackers     to block Sidekiq job processor. (CVE-2023-3246)

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 a612c25f-788a-11ee-8d57-001b217b3468 advisory.
