Critical Vulnerability in GitLab Software
GitLab has released updates that address the critical integer overflow vulnerability CVE-2026-97229 in GitLab Community Edition (CE) and Enterprise Edition (EE) software. Due to insufficient validation of regular expressions, an unauthenticated user could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on a GitLab server by using a specially crafted regular expression in a CI/CD configuration. Recommended action: Immediately update GitLab instances to one of the fixed versions: 19.4.2, 19.3.5, or 19.2.8.
