Helm 3.5.2
Helm v3.5.2 is a security (patch) release. Users are strongly recommended to update to this release. It fixes two security issues in upstream dependencies and one security issue in the Helm codebase.
Please review the following security advisories for context:
- During an audit, Helm core maintainers discovered sanitization issues described in a security advisory. These have been fixed.
- GoUtils (via Sprig) updated the random alphanumeric functions used in Helm templates. Thanks to Open Source Developer Erik Sundell of Sundell Open Source Consulting AB for reporting this issue.
- ORAS had a security release that does not appear to directly impact Helm. However, we have merged it as a precaution.
- The Go team renamed a crypto library (golang.org/x/crypto/ssh/terminal to golang.org/x/term). This was NOT a security fix. But it was a breaking change to the Helm build.
WARNING: Helm is now stricter about sanitizing data in
Chart.yaml
,index.yaml
, andplugin.yaml
. In particular, we are stricter about SemVer strings.
The community keeps growing, and we'd love to see you there!
