validatedZero produced an exploit or a check.GHSA-fw5c-w8rc-j7fx ↗EUVD-2026-105250 ↗
description
Argo CD installations using Kustomize with Helm rendering enabled can run an attacker-supplied Helm plugin as the repo-server user. An attacker must be able to provide Kustomize input through a repository or the relevant server-side manifest submission feature; the process may expose credentials or other accessible data.
mitigation
Upgrade github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v3 to 3.3.15, 3.4.10, 3.5.4, 3.6.0-rc2 or later.
fixed in 3.3.15, 3.4.10, 3.5.4, 3.6.0-rc2
outcome
Check only, differential: the check fires on the vulnerable build and is silent on the patched one.
