Machine-written summary

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

Versions of openmetadata-sdk before 1.11.8 are affected. Any authenticated user with read-only access can obtain the JWT used by the ingestion-bot account for certain services, such as Glue, Redshift, and Postgres, through API responses returned to the UI. The attacker can then use that token to make API calls with the bot's privileges, which can include destructive changes. Upgrade to version 1.11.8.
