CVE-2022-2227Network attack vector

Project metadata disclosure via stale runner ownership

Published Jul 1, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

Improper access control in GitLab before 14.10.5, 15.0 through 15.0.3, and 15.1.0 allows remote authenticated users to read job metadata. The /runners/:id/jobs endpoint treats a former project maintainer as a runner owner and returns private-project job, pipeline, and namespace data without rechecking project membership. Exploitation requires prior maintainer access to a project with a specific runner that remains enabled for another project after removal.
