CVE-2024-4201
A cross-site scripting issue has been discovered in GitLab affecting all versions starting from 5.1 before 16.10.7, all versions starting from 16.11 before 16.111.4, all versions starting from 17.0 before 17.0.2.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.48%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
