medium Nessus Plugin ID 159963

Language:

Synopsis

A source control application running on the remote web server is affected by an expired credentials vulnerability.

Description

According to its self-reported version, the instance of GitLab running on the remote web server is prior to 14.4.5, 14.5.0 prior to 14.5.3, or 14.6.0 prior to 14.6.1. It is, therefore, vulnerable by allowing a user with an expired password to access sensitive information through RSS feeds.

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

Solution

Upgrade to GitLab version 14.4.5 / 14.5.3 / 14.6.1 or later.
