    Published: 12 Sept 2018Last Modified: 8 Jul 2026

    Summary:

    Details: Gitolite before 3.6.9 does not (in certain configurations involving @all or a regex) properly restrict access to a Git repository that is in the process of being migrated until the full set of migration steps has been completed. This can allow valid users to obtain unintended access.
