How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Minimos:latest gitlab-cng-fips-18.7.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gitlab-cng-fips-18.7 package and not the gitlab-cng-fips-18.7 package as distributed by Minimos. See How to fix? for Minimos:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

Rejected reason: This CVE ID has been rejected. GitLab determined that the reported behavior does not constitute a vulnerability: linking a group SAML identity requires the user to explicitly consent to that group controlling their GitLab account for sign-in, and management of group SAML identities by a group Owner is therefore expected behavior rather than an authorization bypass. No GitLab version was affected.
