The goal of every vulnerability management program is to reduce the risk posed by vulnerabilities that exist in the organization’s environments. You can achieve this goal in two ways. The first is to move faster, remediating vulnerabilities faster than they can arise. The problem with this approach is that it doesn’t work. It is inefficient, expensive, and impractical. There are simply too many vulnerabilities.

On July 10, 2024, GitLab issued an advisory regarding a critical vulnerability (CVE-2024-6385) in GitLab CE/EE that had been reported to them through a bug bounty program. This vulnerability allows a threat actor to trigger a GitLab pipeline as another user under certain circumstances.
