Executive Summary

This vulnerability affects GitLab Community Edition and Enterprise Edition versions from 12.10 before 18.10.8, 18.11 before 18.11.5, and 19.0 before 19.0.2. It arises from improper input validation in the API request parsing middleware, which under certain conditions could allow an unauthenticated user to cause a denial of service.

Impact Analysis

The vulnerability can lead to a denial of service (DoS) condition, meaning that an attacker who is not authenticated could disrupt the availability of the GitLab service by exploiting improper input validation in the API request parsing middleware.

Mitigation Strategies

To mitigate this vulnerability, you should upgrade GitLab CE/EE to a fixed version. Specifically, update to version 18.10.8 or later if you are using the 18.10 series, 18.11.5 or later if using the 18.11 series, or 19.0.2 or later if using the 19.0 series.
