GitLab < 14.4.5 / 14.5.0 < 14.5.3 / 14.6.0 < 14.6.1 Bad Input Validation

medium Nessus Plugin ID 159964

Language:

Synopsis

A source control application running on the remote web server is affected by an input validation 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 14.6.2. It is, therefore, affected by a bad input validation issue with the Slack integration that could allow an attacker to craft malicious URLs and send them via Slack.

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.
