CVE-2019-6795 is a social engineering vulnerability affecting GitLab Community and Enterprise Editions before versions 11.5.8, 11.6.6, and 11.7.1.

With a CVSS score of 5.4 (Medium), this vulnerability requires user interaction and could lead to low confidentiality and integrity impacts. There is no known active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion, though it did receive some media coverage.
