CVE-2019-14944
Gitaly allows injection of command-line flags.
MEDIUM 6.5EPSS 1.57%
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.57%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
An issue was discovered in GitLab Community and Enterprise Edition before 11.11.8, 12 before 12.0.6, and 12.1 before 12.1.6. Gitaly allows injection of command-line flags. This sometimes leads to privilege escalation or remote code execution.
