GHSA-528j-9r78-wffx etcd user credentials are stored in WAL logs in plaintext

• Go go.etcd.io/etcd/client/v3: >= 3.4.0, < 3.4.10 → fixed in 3.4.10 • Go go.etcd.io/etcd/client/v3: < 3.3.23 → fixed in 3.3.23

Vulnerability type Data Exposure Workarounds The etcd assumes that the on disk files are secure. The possible fixes have been provided, however, it is the responsibility of the etcd users to make sure that the etcd server WAL log files are secure. The etcd doesn't encrypt key/value data stored on disk drives. Detail User credentials (login and password) are stored in WAL entries on each user authentication. If the WAL log files are not secure, it can potentially expose sensitive information.
