CVE-2024-4784
An issue was discovered in GitLab EE starting from version 16.7 before 17.0.6, version 17.1 before 17.1.4 and 17.2 before 17.2.2 that allowed bypassing the password re-entry requirement to approve a policy.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.29%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
