The version of GitLab installed on the remote host is prior to 15.5.7, 15.6.4, 15.7.2. It is, therefore, affected by an improper authorization vulnerability as referenced in the SECURITY-RELEASE-GITLAB-15-7-2-RELEASED advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
