Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2025-1540 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- gitlab (Bitnami): affected from 17.5.0; fixed in 17.8.2\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-2025-1540/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-1540/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-1540","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-1540/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-1540","record":{"aliases":["BIT-gitlab-2025-1540","GHSA-6xr7-mv6q-jx4q","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-1540"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"GitLab","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"External users can read and clone internal projects due to incorrect authorization checks in GitLab.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitLab","cpe":[{"product":"gitlab","vendor":"gitlab"}],"cvss":{"score":3.1,"severity":"low","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-863","name":"Incorrect Authorization"}],"description":"An issue has been discovered in GitLab CE/EE for Self-Managed and Dedicated instances affecting all versions from 17.5 prior to 17.6.5, 17.7 prior to 17.7.4, and 17.8 prior to 17.8.2.
