Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-24904 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2 (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 2.1.15, 2.2.9, 2.3.4\n- github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2 (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 2.1.15\n- github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2 (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 2.1.15\n- github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2 (Go): affected from 2.2.0; fixed in 2.2.9\n- github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2 (Go): affected from 2.2.0; fixed in 2.2.9\n- github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2 (Go): affected from 2.3.0; fixed in 2.3.4\n- github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2 (Go): affected from 2.3.0; fixed in 2.3.4\n- github.com/argoproj/argo-cd (Go): affected all versions; no fix listed\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-24904/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-24904/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-24904","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-24904/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-24904","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6gcg-hp2x-q54h","GO-2022-0453"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cloud_service","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Argo CD GitOps tool","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A malicious user with repository write access can exploit symlink following to leak sensitive files from the Argo CD repo-server.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"argo_cd","vendor":"argoproj"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-61","name":"UNIX Symbolic Link (Symlink) Following"},{"id":"CWE-59","name":"Improper Link Resolution Before File Access"}],"description":"Argo CD is a declarative, GitOps continuous delivery tool for Kubernetes. Argo CD starting with version 0.7.0 and prior to versions 2.1.15m 2.2.9, and 2.3.4 is vulnerable to a symlink following bug allowing a malicious user with repository write access to leak sensitive files from Argo CD's repo-server. A malicious Argo CD user with write access for a repository which is (or may be) used in a directory-type Application may commit a symlink which points to an out-of-bounds file. Sensitive files which could be leaked include manifest files from other Applications' source repositories (potentially decrypted files, if you are using a decryption plugin) or any JSON-formatted secrets which have been mounted as files on the repo-server. A patch for this vulnerability has been released in Argo CD versions 2.3.4, 2.2.9, and 2.1.15. Users of versions 2.3.0 or above who do not have any Jsonnet/directory-type Applications may disable the Jsonnet/directory config management tool as a workaround.","ecosystems":["Go"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Symlink following allows leaking out-of-bound manifests and JSON files from Argo CD repo-server","id":"CVE-2022-24904","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Go","product":"argoproj:argo_cd","products":["argoproj:argo_cd"],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2022"},"n_packages":8,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Argo CD login screen allows message spoofing if SSO is enabled","id":"CVE-2022-24905"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/argoproj/argo-cd","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/argoproj/argo-cd","source":"GO-2022-0453"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["2.1.15","2.2.9","2.3.4"],"introduced":["0","2.2.0","2.3.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2","source":"GO-2022-0453"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["2.1.15"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-6gcg-hp2x-q54h"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["2.1.15"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2","source":"GHSA-6gcg-hp2x-q54h"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["2.2.9"],"introduced":["2.2.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-6gcg-hp2x-q54h"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["2.2.9"],"introduced":["2.2.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2","source":"GHSA-6gcg-hp2x-q54h"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["2.3.4"],"introduced":["2.3.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-6gcg-hp2x-q54h"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["2.3.4"],"introduced":["2.3.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2","source":"GHSA-6gcg-hp2x-q54h"}],"prev":{"headline":"Buffer overflow in TCP syslog server (receiver) components in rsyslog","id":"CVE-2022-24903"},"products":["argo-cd"],"published":"2022-05-20","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Argo CD: Project API Token Exposes Repository Credentials","id":"CVE-2025-55190","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-09-04"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Argo CD will blindly trust JWT claims if anonymous access is enabled","id":"CVE-2022-29165","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-05-20"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Cluster secret might leak in cluster details page in Argo CD","id":"CVE-2023-40029","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-09-07"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Improper access control allows admin privilege escalation in Argo CD","id":"CVE-2022-24768","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-03-23"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Argo CD vulnerable to Bypassing of Brute Force Protection via Application Crash and In-Memory Data Loss","id":"CVE-2024-21652","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-18"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"ArgoCD ServerSideDiff is vulnerable to Kubernetes Secret Extraction","id":"CVE-2026-42880","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-07"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Argo CD allows cross-site scripting on repositories page","id":"CVE-2025-47933","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-05-29"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"Go Vulnerability Database","prefix":"GO"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-04-23","vendors":["argoproj"]},"summary":"A malicious user with repository write access can exploit symlink following to leak sensitive files from the Argo CD repo-server.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-24904/"}
