GitLab has remediated an issue in GitLab EE affecting all versions from 18.6 before 18.11.6, 19.0 before 19.0.3, and 19.1 before 19.1.1 that under certain conditions could have allowed an authenticated user to read or modify another group's virtual registry cleanup policy settings without authorization.

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Authenticate to GitLab EE with low-privilege account

Enumerate target group IDs via API or UI
Exploit
Craft API request substituting foreign group ID
Execution
Bypass per-group authorization check
Impact
Read or overwrite target group's virtual registry cleanup policy

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires a valid authenticated GitLab EE session - at minimum a user account with PR:L (low-privilege). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 5.4 Medium score reflects a realistic but bounded impact: confidentiality and integrity are both rated Low, availability is unaffected, and scope is unchanged. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An authenticated GitLab EE user with access to any group enumerates group IDs via the GitLab API or UI, then crafts direct API requests to the virtual registry cleanup policy endpoint substituting a target group's ID for their own. Because the authorization check is insufficient, the server processes the request, returning or accepting policy modifications for the foreign group. …
Remediation Upgrade GitLab EE to version 18.11.6, 19.0.3, or 19.1.1 as confirmed by the vendor patch release advisory at https://docs.gitlab.com/releases/patches/patch-release-gitlab-19-1-1-released/. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
