Today we are releasing versions 15.6.1, 15.5.5 and 15.4.6 for GitLab Community Edition (CE) and Enterprise Edition (EE). These versions contain important security fixes, and we strongly recommend that all GitLab installations be upgraded to one of these versions immediately. GitLab.com is already running the patched version. GitLab releases patches for vulnerabilities in dedicated security releases. There are two types of security releases: a monthly, scheduled security release, released a week after the feature release (which deploys on the 22nd of each month), and ad-hoc security releases for critical vulnerabilities. For more information, you can visit our security FAQ. You can see all of our regular and security release blog posts here. In addition, the issues detailing each vulnerability are made public on our issue tracker 30 days after the release in which they were patched. We are dedicated to ensuring all aspects of GitLab that are exposed to customers or that host customer data are held to the highest security standards. As part of maintaining good security hygiene, it is highly recommended that all customers upgrade to the latest security release for their supported version. You can read more best practices in securing your GitLab instance in our blog post. Recommended Action We strongly recommend that all installations running a version affected by the issues described below are upgraded to the latest version as soon as possible. When no specific deployment type (omnibus, source code, helm chart, etc.) of a product is mentioned, this means all types are affected.

Customers that rely on public NTP services such as pool.ntp.org are at risk of receiving rate limited responses due to increased NTP request volume. Every readiness check results in each Praefect node making a request to the configured NTP service. Failed NTP responses result in failed readiness check. If a NTP service is not specified pool.ntp.org is used as the default. Deployments that rely on healthy readiness checks can experience outages. Issue Link: Gitaly 15.4.3 spams NTP requests. Backport fix for Watchdog RssMemoryLimit monitor A non-security issue in Puma is being backported to this release. This affects self-managed instances that uses PumaWorkerKiller. PumaWorkerKiller is disabled by default on Gitlab.com and self-managed instances using helm charts. This means that gitlab.com is not affected. It is enabled by default for omnibus installations and installations from source. Issue Link: Convert memory_limit to bytes for RssMemoryLimit. Updating To update GitLab, see the Update page. To update Gitlab Runner, see the Updating the Runner page. To update DAST API scanner, self-managed customers that are using our built-in DAST CI template after 15.0 can get the latest release from registry.gitlab.com. If using the always pull policy the update will occur automatically. GitLab.com is already running the updated DAST scanner.
