Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Snowflake JDBC (net.snowflake:snowflake-jdbc) versions 3.6.8 through 3.21.0 on Linux cache temporary credentials in a world-readable file when temporary credential caching is enabled with EXTERNALBROWSER or USERNAME_PASSWORD_MFA authentication. A local user on the system could read the cached credentials. Upgrade to version 3.22.0, which fixes the issue.
