GitLab released patched Community Edition and Enterprise Edition versions 18.8.2, 18.7.2, and 18.6.4 to remediate five disclosed vulnerabilities affecting self-managed deployments. The fixes include a high-severity two-factor authentication bypass issue and four denial-of-service flaws, two rated high severity and two rated medium severity. Related CVE records were published for CVE-2026-0723, CVE-2025-13927, CVE-2026-1102, CVE-2025-13335, and CVE-2025-13928.
GitLab said GitLab.com was already running the patched version and that GitLab Dedicated customers did not need to take action, but urged self-managed customers to upgrade immediately. The company also warned that the patch release includes database migrations that can cause downtime on single-node instances unless operators use zero-downtime upgrade procedures in multi-node environments.

GitLab released patch versions **18.6.2**, **18.5.4**, and **18.4.6** for GitLab Community Edition and Enterprise Edition to fix multiple security flaws affecting self-managed deployments. The company said **GitLab.com** was already patched and **GitLab Dedicated** customers did not need to take action, while administrators running affected self-managed versions were urged to upgrade immediately. The fixes were tied to several CVE records, including `CVE-2025-12029`, `CVE-2025-12716`, `CVE-2025-8405`, and `CVE-2025-11984`. The patched issues included several **high-severity** vulnerabilities, such as cross-site scripting in Wiki and Swagger UI, improper encoding in vulnerability reports, and a denial-of-service condition in GraphQL endpoints. GitLab also addressed medium- and low-severity flaws involving WebAuthn, ExifTool processing, the Commit API, compliance frameworks, error messages, and merge request titles. The release included database migrations that could cause downtime on single-node deployments, although multi-node environments could use GitLab's zero-downtime upgrade procedures.

GitLab released security updates `18.8.4`, `18.7.4`, and `18.6.6` for Community Edition and Enterprise Edition to fix multiple vulnerabilities affecting self-managed deployments, and urged customers to upgrade immediately. The most severe issue, **CVE-2025-7659** with CVSS `8.0`, is an incomplete validation flaw in the Web IDE that could allow an unauthenticated attacker to steal tokens and gain access to private repositories. GitLab.com had already been patched, and GitLab Dedicated customers were not required to take action. The release also addressed additional vulnerabilities tracked as **CVE-2025-8099**, **CVE-2026-0958**, **CVE-2026-0595**, and **CVE-2025-14560**, covering several denial-of-service conditions, cross-site scripting, HTML injection, server-side request forgery, and authorization bypasses across GitLab CE/EE and EE. GitLab said the patch release includes database migrations that may cause downtime on single-node deployments, while multi-node environments can avoid downtime by following zero-downtime upgrade procedures.

GitLab released security updates for self-managed **GitLab Community Edition (CE)** and **Enterprise Edition (EE)** to fix a high-severity **two-factor authentication (2FA) bypass** and multiple **denial-of-service (DoS)** flaws. The most significant issue, **CVE-2026-0723** (CVSS 7.4), is an *unchecked return value* weakness in authentication services that could allow an attacker with knowledge of a victim’s credential/account ID to bypass 2FA by submitting forged device responses. GitLab also patched DoS vulnerabilities affecting unauthenticated and authenticated scenarios, including crafted malformed authentication data against the **Jira Connect** integration (**CVE-2025-13927**), incorrect authorization validation in API endpoints such as the **Releases API** (**CVE-2025-13928**), malformed Wiki documents that bypass cycle detection (**CVE-2025-13335**), and repeated malformed SSH authentication requests (**CVE-2026-1102**). Fixed releases are **18.8.2**, **18.7.2**, and **18.6.4**; GitLab advised administrators to upgrade immediately, noting *GitLab.com* is already patched, while third-party tracking indicated thousands of exposed GitLab CE instances remain online and potentially at risk if unpatched.
