AI-suggested

This vulnerability is fixed in Argo CD versions 3.3.15, 3.4.10, 3.5.4, and 3.6.0-rc2. Users should upgrade to one of these versions or later to remediate the issue.

Description

CVE-2026-113672 is a critical path traversal vulnerability in Argo CD's repo-server affecting versions from 0.9.0 up to certain fixed releases. The flaw allows .jsonnet files to import files outside the repository root, potentially exposing sensitive files such as service-account tokens and private keys. Attackers can exploit this by committing malicious .jsonnet files to a Git repository or uploading them via the API with only Application get permission. The issue is fixed in versions 3.3.15, 3.4.10, 3.5.4, and 3.6.0-rc2.
