SCA: security update for github.com/fluxcd/source-controller (GHSA-v554-xwgw-hc3w)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 419078

Description

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

- The source-controller is a Kubernetes operator, specialised in artifacts acquisition from external sources
such as Git, OCI, Helm repositories and S3-compatible buckets. The source-controller implements the
source.toolkit.fluxcd.io API and is a core component of the GitOps toolkit. Prior to version 1.2.5, when
source-controller was configured to use an Azure SAS token when connecting to Azure Blob Storage, the
token was logged along with the Azure URL when the controller encountered a connection error. An attacker
with access to the source-controller logs could use the token to gain access to the Azure Blob Storage
until the token expires. This vulnerability was fixed in source-controller v1.2.5. There is no workaround
for this vulnerability except for using a different auth mechanism such as Azure Workload Identity.
