Impact
GitLab omitted an authorization check that can allow a user with the reporter role to view CI artifact report content that they are not entitled to see. The flaw can expose proprietary or sensitive information from build artifacts, leading to a breach of confidentiality for projects that rely on restricted CI data.
Affected Systems
All GitLab Community and Enterprise Edition instances from version 13.8 up to, but excluding, 19.2.8, from 19.3 up to, but excluding, 19.3.5, and from 19.4 up to, but excluding, 19.4.2 are affected. Exact affected releases include 13.8 through 19.2.7, 19.3.0 through 19.3.4, and 19.4.0 through 19.4.1.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score of 4.3 indicates moderate risk. EPSS data is not available, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, suggesting it is not a widely exploited or actively targeted threat. The flaw requires an authenticated user with reporter permissions, so the attack vector is limited to authenticated web or API access within the GitLab instance. The exclusion of a KEV listing and the moderate score imply that the immediate danger is low but a patch is still recommended to eliminate the missing authorization path.
