The vulnerability, along with three high-severity, 11 medium-severity, and two low-severity bugs, has been fixed in GitLab CE and EE versions 17.3.2, 17.2.5, and 17.1.7.
CVE-2024-6678 is the fourth serious flaw GitLab has fixed in the past year, joining CVE-2023-5009, CVE-2024-5655, and CVE-2024-6385, all with a CVSS score of 9.6.
Users should apply the patches quickly to prevent potential threats, even though there is currently no evidence of active exploitation of the flaws.
In May, the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) announced that a critical GitLab vulnerability (CVE-2023-7028, CVSS score: 10.0) was being actively exploited.
