| 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. |
