That day, they very effectively communicated that they had decided they were only interested in serving Enterprises, and everything about their product has predictably degraded ever since, to the point where now they're now branding themselves "the most comprehensive AI-powered DevSecOps Platform" with a straight face.
They have since had other also severe CVEs. That has made me feel pretty confident in my decision.
The only difficult part for the attacker was finding an email address that was used by the target; though thats hsually the same as you use for git commits; and gitlab “handily” has an email address assigned to each user-id incrementing from 1;
Usually low numbers are admins, so, a pretty big attack vector when combined.
