An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2023-2485 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- gitlab (Bitnami): affected from 14.1.0; fixed in 15.10.8, 15.11.7, 16.0.2\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-2023-2485/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-2485/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-2485","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-2485/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-2485","record":{"aliases":["BIT-gitlab-2023-2485","GHSA-g9jp-p8w6-7f2q","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-2485"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"GitLab","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"A malicious maintainer can escalate other users to Owners in a project by importing members from another project where those users are already Owners.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitLab","cpe":[{"product":"gitlab","vendor":"gitlab"}],"cvss":{"score":4.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-266","name":"Incorrect Privilege Assignment"}],"description":"An issue has been discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions starting from 14.1 before 15.10.8, all versions starting from 15.11 before 15.11.7, all versions starting from 16.0 before 16.0.2.
