CVE-2024-7554Network attack vector

Access-token disclosure via logged API query parameters

Published Aug 8, 2024 · Updated Aug 29, 2024

Information exposure in affected GitLab CE/EE releases allows remote authenticated users to place access tokens in server logs via API requests. A specifically formed API request retains access-token data in query parameters that GitLab records in its logs; the endpoint and logging path are undisclosed. Administrative privileges are required, and the reported consequence is token disclosure without integrity or availability impact.
