What
The scanner replaced its two hard-coded GitLab patterns with a shared, looser suffix match and added nine prefixes, all at high confidence: runner authentication (glrt-), OAuth app secret (gloas-), pipeline trigger (glptt-), Kubernetes agent (glagent-), incoming mail (glimt-), SCIM OAuth (glsoat-), CI build (glcbt-), feed (glft-) and feature-flag client (glffct-).
Details
The shared suffix is [\w=-]{20,}(?:\.[0-9a-z]{9})?, which is broader than the previous fixed 20-character match, so longer and dotted token forms are now caught too.
Evidence
gitlab-feature-flag-client-token
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
