CVE-2025-13928 is a high-severity incorrect authorization vulnerability in the GitLab Community Edition and Enterprise Edition Releases API. It affects GitLab CE/EE versions from 17.7 before 18.6.4, 18.7 before 18.7.2, and 18.8 before 18.8.2. The flaw stems from incorrect authorization validation in API endpoints associated with the Releases API, allowing requests from an unauthenticated user to reach code paths that can be abused to trigger a denial-of-service condition. The issue is described as an authorization weakness rather than memory corruption or code execution, and the primary security consequence is loss of availability.
