  "details": "### Impact\nUsers using the [`github-token` input](https://github.com/canonical/get-workflow-version-action/blob/a5d53b08d254a157ea441c9819ea5002ffc12edc/action.yaml#L10) are impacted.\n\nIf the `get-workflow-version-action` step fails, the exception output may include the GITHUB_TOKEN. If the full token is included in the exception output, GitHub will automatically redact the secret from the GitHub Actions logs. However, the token may be truncated\u2014causing part of the GITHUB_TOKEN to be displayed in plaintext in the GitHub Actions logs.\n\nAnyone with read access to the GitHub repository can view GitHub Actions logs. For public repositories, anyone can view the GitHub Actions logs.\n\nThe opportunity to exploit this vulnerability is limited\u2014the GITHUB_TOKEN is automatically revoked when the job completes. However, there is an opportunity for an attack in the time between the GITHUB_TOKEN being displayed in the logs and the completion of the job. Normally this is less than a second, but it may be greater if [`continue-on-error`](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/writing-workflows/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#jobsjob_idstepscontinue-on-error) is used in the `get-workflow-version-action` step or if [status check functions](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/writing-workflows/choosing-what-your-workflow-does/evaluate-expressions-in-workflows-and-actions#status-check-functions) are used in a later step in the same job. For an example of an attack in the time between the GITHUB_TOKEN being displayed in the logs \u0026 the completion of the job, see https://www.praetorian.com/blog/codeqleaked-public-secrets-exposure-leads-to-supply-chain-attack-on-github-codeql/\n\nFor users who passed the GITHUB_TOKEN to the `github-token` input, update to `v1.0.1`. Any secrets that were partially leaked while using `v1.0.0` should have already been revoked, since the GITHUB_TOKEN is automatically revoked when the job completes. However, in the unlikely event that an attack was executed using a GITHUB_TOKEN before it was revoked (as described above), users\u0027 repositories may still be impacted\u2014for example, a sophisticated attack could have used the GITHUB_TOKEN to push something to the repository.\n\nThe potential effects of an attack depend on the permissions of any GITHUB_TOKENs that were leaked. However, in a very sophisticated attack, even a GITHUB_TOKEN with read-only permissions can affect other GitHub Actions in the same repository if those actions use the Actions [cache](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/writing-workflows/choosing-what-your-workflow-does/caching-dependencies-to-speed-up-workflows). For more information, see the \"But Wait, There\u2019s More\" section of https://www.praetorian.com/blog/codeqleaked-public-secrets-exposure-leads-to-supply-chain-attack-on-github-codeql/ and https://github.com/AdnaneKhan/Cacheract\n\nIf any users used a long-lived secret (e.g. a personal access token) instead of the GITHUB_TOKEN in the `github-token` input, they should immediately revoke that secret. The `get-workflow-version-action`\u0027s documentation \u0026 examples all instructed the user to use the GITHUB_TOKEN, so it is unlikely that users used a long-lived secret instead of the GITHUB_TOKEN.\n\n### Patches\nThis has been fixed in `v1.0.1`. Also, the `v1` tag has been updated to include the fix.\n\n### References\nhttps://github.com/canonical/get-workflow-version-action/issues/2",
