CVE-2026-1102 is a medium-severity denial-of-service vulnerability in GitLab Community Edition and Enterprise Edition. The issue affects an API endpoint involved in handling SSH authentication requests and can be triggered by repeatedly sending malformed SSH authentication data. Improper handling of malformed input allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to drive the vulnerable service into a denial-of-service condition. Affected versions include all GitLab CE/EE releases from 12.3 before 18.6.4, 18.7 before 18.7.2, and 18.8 before 18.8.2.
