Vulnerable Application

This module was successfully tested on:

* gitlab-ce (v17.2.2-ce.0) installed with Docker on Kali Linux 6.6.15

Description

This module is a brute-force login scanner that attempts to authenticate to the GitLab with username and password combinations.

Installation (latest version of gitlab-ce at the time of this writing)

  1. docker pull gitlab/gitlab-ce:17.2.2-ce.0
  2. sudo mkdir -p /srv/gitlab/config /srv/gitlab/logs /srv/gitlab/data
  3. Run the GitLab.
docker run --detach \                                              
--hostname localhost \
--publish 443:443 --publish 80:80 --publish 22:22 \
--name gitlab \
--restart always \
--volume /srv/gitlab/config:/etc/gitlab \
--volume /srv/gitlab/logs:/var/log/gitlab \
--volume /srv/gitlab/data:/var/opt/gitlab \
gitlab/gitlab-ce:17.2.2-ce.0
  1. (Get initial password) docker exec gitlab cat etc/gitlab/initial_root_password | grep Password:

Verification Steps

  1. Install GitLab and start it
  2. Start msfconsole
  3. Do: use auxiliary/scanner/http/gitlab_login
  4. Do: set rhosts
  5. Do: set usernames and passwords via the username and password options, or pass a list via user_file and pass_file options
  6. Do: run
  7. You will hopefully see something similar to:
[+] 192.168.56.6:80 - Login Successful: root:strongpasswordcannotguess
