CVE-2025-10282
📋 TL;DR
BBOT's GitLab module can leak GitLab API keys to attacker-controlled servers through maliciously formatted git URLs. This affects organizations using BBOT with GitLab integration. The vulnerability allows unauthorized access to GitLab resources.
💻 Affected Systems
- BBOT (Black Lantern Security's Bug Bounty Orchestration Tool)
⚠️ Manual Verification Required
This CVE does not have specific version information in our database, so automatic vulnerability detection cannot determine if your system is affected.
Why? The CVE database entry doesn't specify which versions are vulnerable (no version ranges provided by the vendor/NVD).

- Review the CVE details at NVD
- Check vendor security advisories for your specific version
- Test if the vulnerability is exploitable in your environment
- Consider updating to the latest version as a precaution
⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Attackers gain full access to GitLab repositories, pipelines, and sensitive data, potentially leading to source code theft, CI/CD compromise, and lateral movement.
Likely Case
Attackers obtain limited GitLab API access, allowing them to read private repositories, access pipeline artifacts, or modify project settings.
If Mitigated
With proper network segmentation and API key restrictions, impact is limited to specific GitLab projects with minimal permissions.
🎯 Exploit Status
Requires attacker to control a git server that BBOT interacts with, and knowledge of BBOT's GitLab integration.
🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: Latest version after advisory publication
Vendor Advisory: https://blog.blacklanternsecurity.com/p/bbot-security-advisory-gitdumper
Restart Required: No
Instructions:
1. Update BBOT to latest version. 2. Verify GitLab module no longer sends API keys to external servers. 3. Rotate all GitLab API keys used by BBOT.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Disable GitLab Module
allTemporarily disable BBOT's GitLab module until patched
# Edit BBOT configuration to remove or comment GitLab module settings
# Set gitlab.enabled: false in config
Network Restriction
allRestrict BBOT's outbound network access to only trusted GitLab instances
# Use firewall rules to block BBOT from contacting untrusted git servers
# Example: iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -d gitlab.com -j ACCEPT
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Rotate all GitLab API keys used by BBOT immediately
- Implement strict network egress filtering for BBOT instances
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Check if BBOT version is before the fix and GitLab module is enabled with API keys configuredCheck Version:
bbot --version or check package managerVerify Fix Applied:
Verify BBOT version is updated and test that API keys are not transmitted to external git servers📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- Unusual outbound connections from BBOT to non-GitLab git servers
- GitLab API key usage from unexpected IP addresses
Network Indicators:
- BBOT making git protocol connections to unknown servers
- HTTP requests containing GitLab API tokens to external domains
SIEM Query:
source="bbot" AND (dest_ip NOT IN (gitlab_ips) AND protocol="git" OR http_user_agent="BBOT")
