## Description

An issue has been discovered in GitLab affecting all versions starting from
12.10 before 15.1.6, all versions starting from 15.2 before 15.2.4, all
versions starting from 15.3 before 15.3.2. GitLab was not performing
correct authentication with some Package Registries when IP address
restrictions were configured, allowing an attacker already in possession of
a valid Deploy Token to misuse it from any location.
