## Summary
Workspace Agent manifests containing sensitive values were logged in plaintext unsanitized
## Details
By default Workspace Agent logs are redirected to [stderr](https://linux.die.net/man/3/stderr)
https://github.com/coder/coder/blob/a8862be546f347c59201e2219d917e28121c0edb/cli/agent.go#L432-L439
[Workspace Agent Manifests](https://coder.com/docs/reference/agent-api/schemas#agentsdkmanifest) containing sensitive environment variables were logged insecurely
https://github.com/coder/coder/blob/7beb95fd56d2f790502e236b64906f8eefb969bd/agent/agent.go#L1090
An attacker with limited local access to the Coder Workspace (VM, K8s Pod etc.) or a third-party system ([SIEM](https://csrc.nist.gov/glossary/term/security_information_and_event_management_tool), logging stack) could access those logs
This behavior opened room for unauthorized access and privilege escalation
## Impact
Impact varies depending on the environment variables set in a given workspace
## Patches
[Fix](https://github.com/coder/coder/commit/e2a46393fce40bc630df3293c1ee66a596277289) was released & backported:
- https://github.com/coder/coder/releases/tag/v2.28.4
- https://github.com/coder/coder/releases/tag/v2.27.7
- https://github.com/coder/coder/releases/tag/v2.26.5
## Workarounds
One potential workaround is to disable Workspace Agent Logs by setting following configuration option
`CODER_AGENT_LOGGING_HUMAN=/dev/null`
> platform operators are advised to upgrade their deployments
