**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** GitLab CE/EE versions prior to 15.0.5 GitLab CE/EE versions 15.1 prior to 15.1.4 GitLab CE/EE versions 15.2 prior to 15.2.1 **Description** The issue is related to insufficient validation in GitLab, allowing an authenticated and authorized user to import a project with branch names that are 40 hexadecimal characters. This could be exploited in supply chain attacks where a victim is pinned to a specific Git commit of the project. **Recommendations** For versions prior to 15.0.5, update to version 15.0.5 or later. For versions 15.1 prior to 15.1.4, update to version 15.1.4 or later. For versions 15.2 prior to 15.2.1, update to version 15.2.1 or later.
