NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gitlab-rails-ce-fips-18.10 package and not the gitlab-rails-ce-fips-18.10 package as distributed by Chainguard. See How to fix? for Chainguard relevant fixed versions and status.

GitLab has remediated an issue in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions from 10.6 before 19.0.5, 19.1 before 19.1.3, and 19.2 before 19.2.1 that under certain conditions could have allowed an authenticated user with developer-role permissions to commit changes to a project after being removed as a member, due to improper authorization checks on merge request collaboration settings.
