By using an insecure GitLab Runner configuration, you allow the rogue developers

With the new permission model in place, there may be times that your build will

### Prerequisites to use the new permissions model
With the new permissions model in place, there may be times that your build will
fail. This is most likely because your project tries to access other project's
sources, and you don't have the appropriate permissions. In the build log look
for information about 403 or forbidden access messages.
In short here's what you need to do should you encounter any issues.
As an administrator:

check manually for installations from source.
