CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedGitLab versions from 15.6 to 19.0.6, 19.1 to 19.1.4, and 19.2 to 19.2.2 are vulnerable to a privilege escalation issue where users with pending memberships could inadvertently gain permissions associated with custom roles. This flaw arises from improper handling of membership states, potentially allowing unauthorized access to sensitive functionalities. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize remediation to mitigate the risk of unauthorized privilege escalation.
Original NVD Description
GitLab has remediated an issue in GitLab EE affecting all versions from 15.6 before 19.0.6, 19.1 before 19.1.4, and 19.2 before 19.2.2 that under certain conditions could have allowed a user with a pending membership to receive permissions granted by a custom role, due to incorrect privilege assignment that did not account for membership state.
