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

  • Denial of Service in pipelines affecting all versions of Gitlab EE and CE prior to 16.2.8, 16.3 prior to 16.3.5, and 16.4 prior to 16.4.1 allows attacker to cause pipelines to fail. (CVE-2023-3917)

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