The version of GitLab installed on the remote host is affected by a vulnerability, as follows:

  • In all versions of GitLab CE/EE starting from 0.8.0 before 14.2.6, all versions starting from 14.3 before 14.3.4, and all versions starting from 14.4 before 14.4.1 certain Unicode characters can be abused to commit malicious code into projects without being noticed in merge request or source code viewer UI.
    (CVE-2021-39908)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
