A Denial of Service (DoS) issue has been discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions prior to 12.6 prior to 17.4.5, 17.5 prior to 17.5.3, and 17.6 prior to 17.6.1. An attacker could cause a denial of service with a crafted cargo.toml file.

Weakness

An algorithm in a product has an inefficient worst-case computational complexity that may be detrimental to system performance and can be triggered by an attacker, typically using crafted manipulations that ensure that the worst case is being reached.
