What to do

  • If you run an affected version: upgrade to 0.3.5 immediately. Do not delay this for convenience reasons.
  • Rotate any credentials that may have been exposed via the affected component.
  • Audit your logs for indicators of exploitation — unexpected outbound traffic, anomalous tool calls, unfamiliar authenticated sessions.
  • If exploitation is confirmed, treat the host as compromised: rebuild from a clean image, rotate every secret on the host, audit lateral movement.
