Exploitation evidence

CVE published 16 Apr 2024
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponised: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 2026-10-26.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

What to do

Upgrade gitlab to 16.10.2 or 16.9.4.

AI-suggested

A patch is available for this vulnerability. Users should upgrade GitLab CE/EE to versions 16.9.4 or later and 16.10.2 or later to remediate this issue.

Description

A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in GitLab CE/EE versions starting from 16.9 before 16.9.4 and from 16.10 before 16.10.2. The flaw occurs in the diff viewer component and allows an attacker to inject malicious scripts that execute arbitrary actions on behalf of victims.

Impact

Successful exploitation can lead to arbitrary actions performed on behalf of the victim user within GitLab, potentially compromising user accounts or data integrity. No known exploits are reported in the wild at this time.

Summary

CVE-2024-3092 is a stored XSS vulnerability in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions >=16.9.0 <16.9.4 and >=16.10.0 <16.10.2. The vulnerability arises from improper neutralization of input during web page generation in the diff viewer, enabling attackers to inject payloads that execute arbitrary actions as the victim user.
