Today we release GitLab CE, GitLab EE and GitLab CI 7.9.2.

This release is a security release and it contains only fixes for GitLab CI.


GitLab CI 7.9.2 disables builds on shared runners if a project has assigned runners.

What this means is that the user will have to enable `Allow shared runners
` option explicitly if they want the project build to run on a shared runner.

Be advised that serving builds on a shared runner means that trust is required in all users using the CI. Private projects that have CI builds enabled with shared runner setting on will be accesible to all users with access to CI.
