GitLab Community Edition and Enterprise Edition Integer Overflow or Wraparound Vulnerability — GitLab Community Edition and Enterprise Edition contain a integer overflow or wraparound vulnerability that could allow an unauthenticated user to execute arbitrary code on the GitLab server via a specially crafted regular expression in a CI/CD configuration, due to insufficient regular expression validation. Listed in the CISA KEV catalog (added 2026-10-29) — confirmed exploited in the wild, not theoretical. FIRST EPSS puts the chance of exploitation in the next 30 days at ~27%. Treat it as real and prioritize remediation over triage.
- 0
Required action for GitLab Community Edition and Enterprise Edition: Apply mitigations in accordance with vendor instructions, ensuring compliance with CISA’s BOD 26-04 Prioritizing Security Updates Based on Risk (see URL in Notes) guidance and CISA’s “Forensics Triage Requirements” (see URL in Notes). Follow applicable BOD 26-04 guidance for cloud services or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable. Stakeholders are responsible for evaluating each asset's internet exposure and ensuring adherence to BOD 26-04 patching guidelines. CISA set a federal remediation due date of 2026-11-01. After patching, verify the vulnerable path is no longer reachable before closing the finding.

The vold volume manager daemon on Android 3.0 and 2.x before 2.3.4 trusts messages that are received from a PF_NETLINK socket, which allows local users to execute arbitrary code and gain root privileges via a negative index that bypasses a maximum-only signed integer check in the DirectVolume::handlePartitionAdded method, which triggers memory corruption, as demonstrated by Gingerbreak.
