Exploitation evidence

CVE published 17 Feb 2025
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 26 Oct 2026.

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 or the CVSS exploit maturity 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 17.8.2.

AI-suggested

A patch is available for this vulnerability. Users should upgrade affected GitLab instances to versions 17.6.5 or later for the 13.3 to 17.6.x range, 17.7.4 or later for the 17.7.x range, and 17.8.2 or later for the 17.8.x range to remediate this issue.

Description

A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in GitLab Community and Enterprise Editions affecting versions from 13.3 up to but not including 17.8.2. This flaw allows an attacker to execute unauthorized actions via a change page. The vulnerability is rated as high severity. A patch is available to address this issue.

Impact

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to execute unauthorized actions within the affected GitLab instance by leveraging the victim's browser context. This could lead to unauthorized changes or data exposure depending on the privileges of the victim user. No known exploits in the wild have been reported at this time.

Summary

CVE-2025-0376 is an XSS vulnerability in GitLab CE/EE that affects all versions from 13.3 prior to 17.6.5, versions 17.7 prior to 17.7.4, and versions 17.8 prior to 17.8.2. The vulnerability allows an attacker to perform unauthorized actions by injecting malicious scripts through the change page. This improper neutralization of input during web page generation can lead to execution of arbitrary scripts in the context of the victim's browser session.
