Credential disclosure via repository mirroring authorization failure
Published Jul 8, 2026 · Updated Jul 8, 2026
Credential exposure in GitLab EE repository mirroring allows remote authenticated users to obtain another user's stored credentials. GitLab attributes the issue to improper authorization controls in repository mirroring but has not disclosed the affected endpoint or incorrect authorization operation. Exploitation requires Maintainer-role permissions and affects 9.5 through 18.11.6, 19.0 through 19.0.3, and 19.1 through 19.1.1; the reported consequence is credential disclosure only.
