Guest disclosure via missing analytics authorization

Published Aug 25, 2021 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

Improper authorization in GitLab CE/EE branches before 13.12.9, 14.0.7, or 14.1.2 allows remote authenticated users to view private CI/CD analytics. The project CI/CD analytics navigation and page omit the required feature-availability check, exposing pipeline metrics and commit identifiers. Guest membership in a private project is required; the reported consequence is limited to analytics and related repository metadata.
