SCA: security update for github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v3 (GHSA-xrqc-7xgx-c9vh)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 436321

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Argo Workflows is an open source container-native workflow engine for orchestrating parallel jobs on
 Kubernetes. Versions 3.6.13 and below and versions 3.7.0 through 3.7.4, contain unsafe untar code that
 handles symbolic links in archives. Concretely, the computation of a link's target and the subsequent
 check are flawed. An attacker can overwrite the file /var/run/argo/argoexec with a script of their choice,
 which would be executed at the pod's start. The patch deployed against CVE-2025-62156 is ineffective
 against malicious archives containing symbolic links. This issue is fixed in versions 3.6.14 and 3.7.5.
 (CVE-2025-66626)
