We have released GitLab 6.9.2 and new Omnibus packages for GitLab EE 6.8.1 to address issues with the management of SSH keys in Omnibus packages and the LDAP user filter.
We advise all omnibus-gitlab users to upgrade to the latest package and rebuild
their authorized_keys
file. Users of the LDAP user filter feature should
avoid GitLab 6.9.0 and GitLab 6.9.1, and use GitLab 6.9.2 instead.
SSH keys in Omnibus packages
In the Omnibus packages for GitLab EE 6.8, GitLab EE 6.9 and GitLab CE 6.9 the
management of SSH keys via gitlab-shell is broken. We advise all users to
update to the latest package and run the following additional command to
rebuild the authorized_keys
file:
sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:shell:setup
This problem is specific to the omnibus packages; users who installed manually or using the Chef cookbook are not affected by this issue.
LDAP user filter
In GitLab 6.9.0 and 6.9.1 (both CE and EE) the LDAP user filter feature is broken. An LDAP user filter query that works in GitLab 6.8 and earlier will prevent all LDAP users from signing in. This issue has been resolved in GitLab CE 6.9.2 and GitLab EE 6.9.2.
We want to hear from you
