Machine-written summary

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

Argo CD (github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2) versions before 2.1.15, from 2.2.0 before 2.2.9, and from 2.3.0 before 2.3.4 are affected. A user with write access to a repository used by a directory-type Application can commit a symlink to an out-of-bounds file and read its contents from the repo-server. Upgrade to 2.1.15, 2.2.9, 2.3.4, or later; if upgrading is not possible on a 2.3.x release, disable the built-in Jsonnet/directory tool by setting jsonnet.enable to false.
