GitLab has remediated an issue in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions from 16.6 before 19.0.5, 19.1 before 19.1.3, and 19.2 before 19.2.1 that under certain conditions could have allowed an unauthorized user to view project import source information due to a missing authorization check.
AnalysisAI
Unauthorized disclosure of project import source information in GitLab CE/EE stems from a missing authorization check (CWE-863), allowing unauthenticated remote users to view sensitive metadata about how a project was originally imported. All GitLab installations running versions from 16.6 up to 19.0.4, 19.1.2, and 19.2.0 are affected. A publicly available exploit exists via a disclosed HackerOne report, though no confirmed active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been recorded at time of analysis.
Technical ContextAI
GitLab CE and EE (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:gitlab:gitlab:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) expose project import workflows that record metadata about import origins - such as the source repository URL or platform - during project creation. CWE-863 (Incorrect Authorization) identifies the root cause as an authorization decision point that was either absent or insufficiently enforced on the endpoint serving this import source data. The flaw is consistent with a server-side access control omission on a REST or GraphQL endpoint where the response was not gated against the caller's session or role. Because the CVSS vector is AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N, the missing check is reachable without any authentication, making the exposure directly exploitable over the network by any party who can reach the GitLab instance.
RemediationAI
Upgrade to one of the vendor-released patched versions: GitLab 19.0.5, 19.1.3, or 19.2.1, as documented in the GitLab patch release advisory at https://docs.gitlab.com/releases/patches/patch-release-gitlab-19-2-1-released/. For GitLab instances that cannot be immediately upgraded, consider restricting public access to the GitLab instance at the network layer (firewall or reverse proxy authentication) to ensure only authenticated users can reach any GitLab endpoints - this compensates for the missing application-layer check but introduces friction for legitimate anonymous browsing features. Alternatively, disabling project import functionality (via Admin > Settings > General > Import sources) eliminates the attack surface entirely, with the trade-off that existing import workflows will be broken. GitLab.com (SaaS) has already been remediated by GitLab directly.
