An attacker who has permissions to read logs from pods in a namespace with Argo Workflow can read workflow-controller logs and get credentials to the artifact repository.
An attacker, by reading the logs of the workflow controller pod, can access the artifact repository, and steal, delete or modify the data that resides there. The workflow-controller logs show the credentials in plaintext.
An attacker with access to pod logs in the argo namespace can extract plaintext credentials from the workflow-controller logs and gain access to the artifact repository. This can lead to:
