Daily Cyber News: GitLab secrets exposed as attackers move within 24 hours
Secrets stored on self-hosted GitLab servers may already be exposed because attackers began exploiting a file-read weakness within 24 hours of disclosure. A single unauthenticated request can reveal S S H keys, database credentials, deploy tokens, CI/CD variables, and other configuration data. Affected versions include 18.7 before 19.1.8, 19.2 before 19.2.6, and 19.3 before 19.3.2.
Key context: Public-facing instances face the highest immediate risk, but the impact may not stop at GitLab.
