Private project-path disclosure via unfiltered system notes
Published Mar 28, 2022 · Updated Aug 2, 2024
Information disclosure in GitLab 10.0 through 14.5.3, 14.6.0 through 14.6.3, and 14.7.0 allows remote attackers to learn private paths. When an issue closed by a private merge request is moved into a public project, the retained system note renders the inaccessible source-project reference without applying the usual visibility check. Remote attackers must view the destination issue after this specific workflow; exposure is limited to the private path, not repository contents.
