GitLab 13.0 < 15.0.5 / 15.1 < 15.1.4 / 15.2 < 15.2.1 Improper Access

low Nessus Plugin ID 163888

Language:

Synopsis

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

Description

According to its self-reported version, the instance of GitLab running on the remote web server is 13.0 prior to 15.0.5, 15.1 prior to 15.1.4, or 15.2 prior to 15.2.1. It is, therefore, affected by an improper access vulnerability where a malicious Group Owner can retain a usable Group Access Token even after the Group is deleted, though the APIs usable by that token are limited.

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 15.0.5, 15.1.4, 15.2.1, or later.
