How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:unstable gitlab to version 16.0.8+ds1-1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gitlab package and not the gitlab package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:unstable relevant fixed versions and status.

An issue has been discovered in GitLab affecting all versions starting from 8.10 before 16.0.8, all versions starting from 16.1 before 16.1.3, all versions starting from 16.2 before 16.2.2. Under specific circumstances, a user importing a project 'from export' could access and read unrelated files via uploading a specially crafted file. This was due to a bug in tar, fixed in tar-1.35.
