Perfect-10 GitLab bug under attack days after patch lands

CISA confirms active exploitation of CVSS 10.0 GitLab path traversal flaw CVE-2026-85706 days after patches shipped, enabling unauthenticated arbitrary file reads.

CISA added CVE-2026-85706, a maximum-severity 10.0 CVSS path traversal flaw in GitLab's repository commits API, to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog and confirmed active exploitation. The bug allows unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files, including configuration data and credentials, from self-managed GitLab CE/EE servers via a single HTTP POST request. GitLab shipped fixes on September 10 in versions 19.3.2, 19.2.6, and 19.1.8, covering versions 18.7 through 19.3. watchTowr is observing probes against internet-facing instances and warns widespread exploitation is likely to follow quickly.

U.S. CISA adds GitLab, JFrog Artifactory, and ConnectWise ScreenConnect flaws to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog

CISA added four actively exploited GitLab, JFrog Artifactory, and ConnectWise ScreenConnect flaws to the KEV catalog with imminent deadlines.

CISA added CVE-2026-42016 and CVE-2026-42018 (JFrog Artifactory), CVE-2026-84869 (ConnectWise ScreenConnect), and CVE-2026-85706 (GitLab, CVSS 10.0) to its KEV catalog. Artifactory flaws are being chained with CVE-2026-82329 in attacks observed August 15 to September 8, taking over self-hosted servers, creating persistent administrator accounts, and installing backdoors. ScreenConnect CVE-2026-84869 allows unauthorized file transfer and execution during remote sessions, linked by Huntress to malicious VBScript deliveries, and is fixed in version 26.6.5. GitLab's repository commits API path traversal exposes SSH keys, database credentials, deploy tokens, and CI/CD variables, with watchTowr already observing in-the-wild probes. Federal agencies must patch GitLab and ScreenConnect flaws by September 14, 2026, and Artifactory flaws by September 25, 2026.

CISA Warns of Critical GitLab Vulnerability Exploited in Attacks

CISA added actively exploited GitLab path traversal flaw CVE-2026-85706 to its KEV catalog, warning unauthenticated attackers can read arbitrary files including secrets.

CISA added CVE-2026-85706, an unauthenticated path traversal vulnerability (CWE-35) in the repository commits API of GitLab Community and Enterprise Editions, to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on September 11, 2026, with a remediation deadline of September 14, 2026. The flaw allows arbitrary file reads via improper path confinement, potentially exposing configuration files, access tokens, private keys, and CI/CD variables that enable further intrusion and supply chain compromise. CISA requires forensic triage under Binding Operational Directive 26-04 and urges defenders to review logs for traversal requests and rotate potentially exposed credentials after patching.

CISA Warns of GitLab Path Traversal Vulnerability Exploited in Attacks

CISA added actively exploited GitLab path traversal flaw CVE-2026-85706 (CVSS 10.0) to its KEV catalog, setting a September 14 federal patch deadline.

CISA added CVE-2026-85706, a CVSS 10.0 path traversal vulnerability in GitLab's repository commits API, to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on September 11, 2026. The flaw affects GitLab CE/EE versions 18.7-19.1.7, 19.2-19.2.5, and 19.3-19.3.1, allowing unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files from affected servers without user interaction. Fixes are available in GitLab 19.1.8, 19.2.6, and 19.3.2, and federal civilian agencies must remediate by September 14, 2026 under Binding Operational Directive 26-04. GitLab credited researcher s3ntago via HackerOne; arbitrary file disclosure could expose credentials, tokens, and CI/CD secrets useful for follow-on intrusions.

A maximum severity GitLab flaw could turn your CI/CD server into an attacker’s treasure trove

GitLab patched maximum-severity CVE-2026-85706, an unauthenticated path traversal enabling arbitrary file reads; CISA added it to KEV amid observed in-the-wild probes.

CVE-2026-85706 is a CVSS 10.0 path traversal in GitLab's repository commits API caused by improper confinement and missing authentication enforcement, allowing arbitrary file reads in a single unauthenticated HTTP request. It affects GitLab CE and EE versions 18.7 before 19.1.8, 19.2 before 19.2.6, and 19.3 before 19.3.2, and was reported via GitLab's HackerOne bug bounty. CISA added the flaw to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and watchTowr Intel reports already observing in-the-wild probes; GitLab is used by roughly 50% of the Fortune 100 with over 50 million registered users. Defenders are advised to patch immediately, rotate any exposed secrets, and hunt logs for HTTP POST requests to /api/v4/projects/{id}/repository/commits/ URIs containing file.path parameters.

CISA Adds One Known Exploited Vulnerability to Catalog

CISA added CVE-2026-85706, an actively exploited GitLab path traversal flaw, to its KEV Catalog, requiring federal agencies to prioritize patching.

CISA added one vulnerability to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog based on evidence of active exploitation: CVE-2026-85706, a path traversal vulnerability in GitLab Community Edition and Enterprise Edition. Under Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 26-04, Federal Civilian Executive Branch agencies must prioritize rapid remediation of KEV-listed vulnerabilities on publicly exposed assets, including checking whether systems were compromised before the patch was applied. While BOD 26-04 binds only FCEB agencies, CISA encourages all organizations to adopt risk-based vulnerability management and prioritize KEV remediations.

CISA: Hackers now exploit max severity GitLab flaw in attacks

CISA added max-severity GitLab CVE-2026-85706 to its exploited-flaws catalog after watchTowr observed probing of unpatched servers.

CISA added CVE-2026-85706, a maximum-severity GitLab flaw caused by missing authentication enforcement and improper path confinement in the repository commits API, to its actively exploited vulnerabilities catalog. Unauthenticated attackers can read credentials, secrets, and arbitrary files from vulnerable servers via a single HTTP request. GitLab patched the issue in CE/EE versions 19.3.2, 19.2.6, and 19.1, and federal agencies have three days to remediate under BOD 26-04. watchTowr reported in-the-wild probes for unpatched GitLab servers, and this is the fourth GitLab vulnerability CISA has tagged as actively exploited since November 2021.

GitLab CVSS 10 File-Read Flaw Draws In-the-Wild Probes After Disclosure

GitLab patched CVE-2026-85706, a CVSS 10.0 unauthenticated path traversal enabling arbitrary file reads, already probed in the wild.

GitLab released patches for a maximum-severity path traversal flaw (CVE-2026-85706, CVSS 10.0) in the repository commits API, caused by improper path confinement and missing authentication enforcement, allowing unauthenticated arbitrary file reads. watchTowr observed active in-the-wild probes starting 06:00 UTC on September 11, 2026; exploitation requires at least one public project and enables theft of credentials, secrets, and configuration data. GitLab also patched CVE-2026-87719 (CVSS 9.9), an insecure deserialization bug in Enterprise Edition allowing authenticated Duo Chat users to access Advanced Search configurations and sensitive credentials via crafted GraphQL subscription arguments. Affected versions include 18.7 before 19.1.8, 19.2 before 19.2.6, and 19.3 before 19.3.2, and the flaw follows the recently exploited GraphQL code injection bug CVE-2026-19478.
