Summary

GitLab CE/EE from 15.10 before 19.3.6, 19.4 before 19.4.3, and 19.5 before 19.5.1 is affected by an authorization bypass (CWE-639). Missing authorization checks on a user-supplied project filter parameter in the group milestones API let an authenticated user read milestone metadata, including titles, descriptions and full project paths, from private projects without project membership. The attacker needs a low-privileged account on the instance.
