description
This module takes advantage of the addition of authorized
          ssh keys in the gitlab-shell functionality of Gitlab. Versions
          of gitlab-shell prior to 1.7.4 used the ssh key provided directly
          in a system call resulting in a command injection vulnerability. As
          this relies on adding an ssh key to an account, valid credentials
          are required to exploit this vulnerability.
