The Gitlab software development platform is vulnerable. Security updates closed several vulnerabilities.
Security patches available
According to a warning message, if attacks are successful, attackers can execute their commands (CVE-2025-0376 “high”), trigger crashes (CVE-2025-12379 “medium”) or access data that is actually sealed off (CVE-2024-3303 “medium”).
It is not yet clear how such attacks could take place and whether there are already attacks. Admins who manage Gitlab installations should quickly install one of the versions equipped against the attacks described: 17.6.5, 17.7.4, 17.8.2. According to the developers, these versions are already running on Gitlab.com. Gitlab Dedicated customers do not need to do anything.
