Until a patch is available, restrict workspace membership to trusted users only and monitor for any unusual access patterns related to draft scripts. Follow vendor updates closely for any forthcoming patches or official mitigation instructions.
Description
An information disclosure vulnerability in Windmill Labs Windmill through 1.783.0 allows any authenticated workspace member to read legacy ownerless draft scripts that contain plaintext resource credentials. Drafts with a null owner email bypass ACL enforcement and are returned to any workspace member who queries the drafts endpoint. Sensitive credentials stored in these drafts are exposed across ACL boundaries.
