Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
The Go module github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v4 versions 4.0.0 up to but not including 4.0.5 logs artifact repository credentials, such as S3 access keys, secret keys, GCS service account keys, and Azure account keys, in plaintext during artifact operations. Anyone with Kubernetes permission to read workflow pod logs in the workflow namespace can extract these credentials. Upgrade to version 4.0.5, which is the fixed release.
