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

  • Accidental logging of system root password in the migration log in all versions of GitLab CE/EE 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 allows an attacker with local file system access to obtain system root-level privileges (CVE-2021-39913)

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