Recently, a vulnerability named CVE-2021-22205 has been detected in GitLab, which affects all versions starting from 11.9. This vulnerability arises due to the lack of proper validation of image files that are passed to a file parser, resulting in remote command execution. This can allow attackers to execute arbitrary code on the GitLab server hosting the vulnerable code.

The exploitation of this vulnerability can result in the compromise of sensitive data stored within the GitLab platform, including user credentials, key SSH files, and confidential project information.
