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

  • An issue has been discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions before 15.10.8, all versions starting from 15.11 before 15.11.7, all versions starting from 16.0 before 16.0.2. An attacker was able to spoof protected tags, which could potentially lead a victim to download malicious code. (CVE-2023-2001)

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