An issue has been discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions starting from 9.3 before 16.0.8, all versions starting from 16.1 before 16.1.3, all versions starting from 16.2 before 16.2.2. A Regular Expression Denial of Service was possible via sending crafted payloads which use ProjectReferenceFilter to the preview_markdown endpoint.

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the fa239535-30f6-11ee-aef9-001b217b3468 advisory.

  - An issue has been discovered in GitLab affecting all versions starting from 15.2 before 16.0.8, all     versions starting from 16.1 before 16.1.3, all versions starting from 16.2 before 16.2.2. A Regular     Expression Denial of Service was possible by using crafted payloads to search Harbor Registry.
    (CVE-2023-0632)

  - An issue has been discovered in GitLab affecting all versions starting from 12.9 before 16.0.8, all     versions starting from 16.1 before 16.1.3, all versions starting from 16.2 before 16.2.2. It was possible     to leak a user's email via an error message for groups that restrict membership by email domain.
    (CVE-2023-1210)

  - An issue has been discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions starting before 16.0.8, all versions     starting from 16.1 before 16.1.3, all versions starting from 16.2 before 16.2.2, which leads to developers     being able to create pipeline schedules on protected branches even if they don't have access to merge     (CVE-2023-2022)

  - An issue has been discovered in GitLab affecting all versions starting from 15.9 before 16.0.8, all     versions starting from 16.1 before 16.1.3, all versions starting from 16.2 before 16.2.2. It was possible     for an attacker to trigger a stored XSS vulnerability via user interaction with a crafted URL in the     WebIDE beta. (CVE-2023-2164)

  - An issue has been discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions starting from 8.14 before 16.0.8, all     versions starting from 16.1 before 16.1.3, all versions starting from 16.2 before 16.2.2. A Regular     Expression Denial of Service was possible via sending crafted payloads which use AutolinkFilter to the     preview_markdown endpoint. (CVE-2023-3364)

  - An issue has been discovered in GitLab affecting all versions starting from 8.10 before 16.0.8, all     versions starting from 16.1 before 16.1.3, all versions starting from 16.2 before 16.2.2. Under specific     circumstances, a user importing a project 'from export' could access and read unrelated files via     uploading a specially crafted file. This was due to a bug in `tar`, fixed in     [`tar-1.35`](https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-gnu/2023-07/msg00005.html). (CVE-2023-3385)

  - An issue has been discovered in GitLab affecting all versions before 16.0.8, all versions starting from     16.1 before 16.1.3, all versions starting from 16.2 before 16.2.2. The main branch of a repository with a     specially designed name allows an attacker to create repositories with malicious code. (CVE-2023-3401)

  - An issue has been discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions starting from 10.0 before 16.0.8, all     versions starting from 16.1 before 16.1.3, all versions starting from 16.2 before 16.2.2. A reflected XSS     was possible when creating specific PlantUML diagrams that allowed the attacker to perform arbitrary     actions on behalf of victims. (CVE-2023-3500)

  - An issue has been discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions starting from 16.1 before 16.1.3, all     versions starting from 16.2 before 16.2.2. An invalid 'start_sha' value on merge requests page may lead to     Denial of Service as Changes tab would not load. (CVE-2023-3900)

  - An issue has been discovered in GitLab EE affecting all versions starting from 14.3 before 16.0.8, all     versions starting from 16.1 before 16.1.3, all versions starting from 16.2 before 16.2.2. Access tokens     may have been logged when a query was made to a specific endpoint. (CVE-2023-3993)

  - An issue has been discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions starting from 9.3 before 16.0.8, all     versions starting from 16.1 before 16.1.3, all versions starting from 16.2 before 16.2.2. A Regular     Expression Denial of Service was possible via sending crafted payloads which use ProjectReferenceFilter to     the preview_markdown endpoint. (CVE-2023-3994)

  - An issue has been discovered in GitLab EE affecting all versions from 15.11 prior to 16.2.2 which allows     an attacker to spike the resource consumption resulting in DoS. (CVE-2023-4011)

  - Gitlab reports: ReDoS via ProjectReferenceFilter in any Markdown fields ReDoS via AutolinkFilter in any     Markdown fields Regex DoS in Harbor Registry search Arbitrary read of files owned by the git user via     malicious tar.gz file upload using GitLab export functionality Stored XSS in Web IDE Beta via crafted URL     securityPolicyProjectAssign mutation does not authorize security policy project ID An attacker can run     pipeline jobs as arbitrary user Possible Pages Unique Domain Overwrite Access tokens may have been logged     when a query was made to an endpoint Reflected XSS via PlantUML diagram The main branch of a repository     with a specially designed name may allow an attacker to create repositories with malicious code Invalid     'start_sha' value on merge requests page may lead to Denial of Service Developers can create pipeline     schedules on protected branches even if they don't have access to merge Potential DOS due to lack of     pagination while loading license data Leaking emails of newly created users (CVE-2023-4002)

  - An issue has been discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions starting from 15.9 before 16.0.8, all     versions starting from 16.1 before 16.1.3, all versions starting from 16.2 before 16.2.2. It was possible     to takeover GitLab Pages with unique domain URLs if the random string added was known. (CVE-2023-4008)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
