CVE-2019-25210: Infoleak
First published: Sun Mar 03 2024(Updated: )
An issue was discovered in Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) Helm through 3.13.3. It displays values of secrets when the --dry-run flag is used. This is a security concern in some use cases, such as a --dry-run call by a CI/CD tool. NOTE: the vendor's position is that this behavior was introduced intentionally, and cannot be removed without breaking backwards compatibility (some users may be relying on these values). <a href="https://github.com/helm/helm/issues/7275">https://github.com/helm/helm/issues/7275</a> <a href="https://www.cncf.io/projects/helm/">https://www.cncf.io/projects/helm/</a>
