CVE-2019-15726
Embedded images and media files in markdown could be pointed to an arbitrary server, which would reveal the IP address of clients requesting the file from that server.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.65%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
An issue was discovered in GitLab Community and Enterprise Edition through 12.2.1. Embedded images and media files in markdown could be pointed to an arbitrary server, which would reveal the IP address of clients requesting the file from that server.
