Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2025-62156 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v3 (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 3.6.12, 3.7.3\n- github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v3 (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 3.6.12\n- github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v3 (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 3.6.12\n- github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v3 (Go): affected from 3.7.0; fixed in 3.7.3\n- github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v3 (Go): affected from 3.7.0; fixed in 3.7.3\n- argo-workflows (Bitnami): affected all versions; fixed in 3.6.12, 3.7.3\n- github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows (Go): affected all versions; no fix listed\n- github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v2 (Go): affected all versions; no fix listed\n\nTask:\n1.

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.

Versions prior to 3.6.12 and versions 3.7.0 through 3.7.2 contain a Zip Slip path traversal vulnerability in artifact extraction. During artifact extraction the unpack/untar logic (workflow/executor/executor.go) uses filepath.Join(dest, filepath.Clean(header.Name)) without validating that header.Name stays within the intended extraction directory. A malicious archive entry can supply a traversal or absolute path that, after cleaning, overrides the destination directory and causes files to be written outside the /work/tmp extraction path and into system directories such as /etc inside the container. The vulnerability enables arbitrary file creation or overwrite in system configuration locations (for example /etc/passwd, /etc/hosts, /etc/crontab), which can lead to privilege escalation or persistence within the affected container. Update to 3.6.12 or 3.7.3 to remediate the issue.","ecosystems":["Bitnami","Go"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"argo-workflows Zip Slip path traversal allows arbitrary file write and container configuration overwrite","id":"CVE-2025-62156","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2025"},"n_packages":8,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Argo Workflows exposes artifact repository credentials in workflow-controller logs","id":"CVE-2025-62157"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","fixed":["3.6.12","3.7.3"],"introduced":["0","3.7.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"argo-workflows","purl":"pkg:bitnami/argo-workflows","source":"BIT-argo-workflows-2025-62156"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows","source":"GO-2025-4023"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v2","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v2","source":"GO-2025-4023"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["3.6.12","3.7.3"],"introduced":["0","3.7.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v3","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v3","source":"GO-2025-4023"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["3.6.12"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v3","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-p84v-gxvw-73pf"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["3.6.12"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v3","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v3","source":"GHSA-p84v-gxvw-73pf"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["3.7.3"],"introduced":["3.7.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v3","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-p84v-gxvw-73pf"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["3.7.3"],"introduced":["3.7.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v3","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v3","source":"GHSA-p84v-gxvw-73pf"}],"prev":{"headline":"QuantumNous New API Has SSRF Bypass","id":"CVE-2025-62155"},"products":["argo-workflows"],"published":"2025-10-14","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Argo Workflows has unauthorized access to Argo Workflows Template","id":"CVE-2026-28229","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-11"},{"cvss_score":8.9,"headline":"Argo Workflows: Incomplete fix for CVE-2026-31892: ArtifactGC.PodSpecPatch bypass of Strict/Secure templateReferencing","id":"CVE-2026-54526","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-16"},{"cvss_score":8.9,"headline":"WorkflowTemplate Security Bypass via podSpecPatch in Strict/Secure Reference Mode","id":"CVE-2026-31892","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-11"},{"cvss_score":8.5,"headline":"Argo Workflows: Exposure of artifact repository credentials","id":"CVE-2026-42295","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-09"},{"cvss_score":8.5,"headline":"Argo Workflows Is Missing Authorization in Sync ConfigMap Provider","id":"CVE-2026-42297","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-09"},{"cvss_score":8.5,"headline":"Argo Workflows exposes artifact repository credentials in workflow-controller logs","id":"CVE-2025-62157","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-10-14"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"Argo Workflows: Unauthenticated Memory Exhaustion (DoS) in Webhook Interceptor","id":"CVE-2026-42294","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-09"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"Apache-2.0","name":"Bitnami","prefix":"BIT"},{"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":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-10-14","vendors":["argoproj"]},"summary":"Attackers can write arbitrary files outside the extraction directory via malicious archives, potentially overwriting system configs to escalate privileges or persist in the container.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-62156/"}
