  • GitHub Actions Are a Problem

    * Gitlab EE (enterprise edition) is closed, but Gitlab CE (community edition) is open source (https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/)

    * I didn't follow the Gitea drama too closely, but my understanding is that Forgejo was a fork born out of that situation

    * I've heard the SourceHut guy is a controversial figure, so avoiding it because of that isn't unreasonable. I will just say that "spite forks" tend not to last very long

  • Server-Side Request Forgery in Rails
    2 projects | dev.to | 19 Jul 2023
    Gitlab uses an UrlBlocker class to prevent malicious users from exploiting SSRF via the webhook URL. This class validates the URL and blocks everything which is a local network, but before the 11.5.1 version, they didn't think about an IPv6 format, which maps to IPv4: [0:0:0:0:0:ffff:127.0.0.1]. Replacing the part of 127.0.0.1 to any IP address also worked, and this vulnerability made it possible to send requests to the internal network of a GitLab instance. You can read the issue report here: (https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/53242 )[https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/53242]
  • Automating deployment to kubernetes
    2 projects | /r/devops | 12 Jul 2023
    I recommend Auto DevOps and hooking your project up to the Kubernetes cluster. Auto DevOps is a standard CI/CD template that GitLab uses by default when .gitlab-ci.yml is not present. It can automatically package up certain types of applications, including those with a Dockerfile in the root of the repo. If the project is hooked up to a Kubernetes cluster and all the right variables are present, it builds that docker image and then fills in a Helm chart template containing that image and deploys it to the cluster.
  • Beautifying our UI: Giving Gitlab build features a fresh look

    Thanks. This was also requested for the UI 7 years ago

    and then closed with the claim that this was implemented, when in fact, it was not.

  • How we cut down our CI build times by 50%

    Similar to fsync, these are designed to ensure data integrity, but in a test setup, they don't matter. You can read more about these in the Postgres doc on non-durability. and explore some benchmarks from Gitlab here. Interestingly, CircleCI's old Postgres images had these features disabled by default, but the newer ones don't seem to.
  • Is Jenkins still the king?

    Most all of those things are possible with Argo Workflows or Tekton with very great effort. But a sustainable system with all the features built-in.

    If you wish to clone a copy of GitLab without proprietary code, you can use the read-only mirror of GitLab located at https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/. However, please do not submit any issues and/or merge requests to that project.
  • Gitlab runners unable to clone over http(s) when git access set to SSH only.
    1 project | /r/gitlab | 28 Feb 2023
    GitLab versions 10.7 and later, allow the HTTP(S) protocol for Git clone or fetch requests done by GitLab Runner from CI/CD jobs, even if you select Only SSH.
