CVE-2025-62794 – GitHub Workflow Updater stored the optional Github token in plaintext

CVE ID : CVE-2025-62794

Published : Oct. 28, 2025, 9:15 p.m. | 1 hour, 29 minutes ago

Description : GitHub Workflow Updater is a VS Code extension that automatically pins GitHub Actions to specific commits for enhanced security. Before 0.0.7, any provided Github token would be stored in plaintext in the editor configuration as json on disk, rather than through the more secure “securestorage” api. An attacker with read only access to your home directory could have read this token and used it to perform actions with that token. Update to 0.0.7.

Severity: 3.8 | LOW
