Summary

GitLab CE and EE from 13.11 before 19.2.8, from 19.3 before 19.3.5, and from 19.4 before 19.4.2 are affected. Improper redirect validation in the Kubernetes proxy (CWE-601) lets requests be redirected to an unintended server. An authenticated user who controls a Kubernetes agent can, under certain conditions, cause sensitive authentication tokens to be sent to that server. An exploit link is listed in the references.
