An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2016-9469 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Gitlab Gitlab. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9469/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9469/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-9469","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9469/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-9469","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-5ggg-p758-cx97"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"GitLab","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Authenticated users can delete all Issues and Merge Requests, or unauthenticated users if projects are public.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"hackerone","cpe":[{"product":"gitlab","vendor":"gitlab"}],"cvss":{"score":8.2,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:L","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null},{"id":"CWE-749","name":"Exposed Dangerous Method or Function"}],"description":"Multiple versions of GitLab expose a dangerous method to any authenticated user that could lead to the deletion of all Issue and MergeRequest objects on a GitLab instance.
