DescriptionCVE.org

GitLab has remediated an issue in GitLab EE affecting all versions from 13.1 before 19.1.7, 19.2 before 19.2.5, and 19.3 before 19.3.1 that, under certain conditions, an authenticated user with reporter-role permissions who authored a merge request could have reset merge request approval rules due to improper authorization checks.

AnalysisAI

Improper authorization in GitLab Enterprise Edition allows an authenticated reporter-level user who authored a merge request to reset that MR's approval rules, potentially bypassing mandatory code-review controls enforced by administrators. All GitLab EE versions from 13.1 through 19.3.0 are affected, with remediated releases published. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Authenticate as reporter-level GitLab EE user

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires an authenticated GitLab EE user holding at minimum reporter-level permissions who has authored the target merge request. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N yields a score of 3.5 (Low). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker with a legitimate reporter-level account on a GitLab EE instance authors a merge request on a project that enforces approval rules requiring sign-off from senior engineers. Exploiting the improper authorization check, the attacker resets the approval rules on their own MR - removing required approvers or reducing the approval count to zero. …
Remediation Upgrade to GitLab EE 19.1.7, 19.2.5, or 19.3.1, as documented in the vendor patch release at https://docs.gitlab.com/releases/patches/patch-release-gitlab-19-3-1-released/. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
