QID 981990

QID 981990: Go (go) Security Update for github.com/argoproj/argo (GHSA-h8jc-jmrf-9h8f)

As of v1.5.0, the default admin password is set to the argocd-server pod name. For insiders with access to the cluster or logs, this issue could be abused for privilege escalation, as Argo has privileged roles. A malicious insider is the most realistic threat, but pod names are not meant to be kept secret and could wind up just about anywhere.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may affect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the targeted user.
