How to fix?

Upgrade github.com/rancher/rancher/pkg/controllers/management/clusterdeploy to version 2.8.9-alpha10, 2.9.3-alpha5 or higher.

Overview

github.com/rancher/rancher/pkg/controllers/management/clusterdeploy is a project that provides a container management platform built for organizations that deploy containers in production

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Insufficiently Protected Credentials in internal configuration objects, which are written to disk during vSphere cluster provisioning. An attacker with cluster member level or privileged infrastructure access can expose the CSI and CPI credentials in spec.rkeConfig.chartValues.rancher-vsphere-cpi and spec.rkeConfig.chartValues.rancher-vsphere-csi, under the provisioning.cattle.io object, or the spec.chartValues.rancher-vsphere-cpi and spec.chartValues.rancher-vsphere-csi credentials under the rke.cattle.io.rkecontrolplane object, or either set of secrets in a plan file on a downstream cluster.

Note: After upgrading to a fixed version, existing clusters must be scrubbed of stored secrets. A script has been provided to remove them: https://github.com/rancherlabs/support-tools/blob/master/migrate-vsphere-clusters/migrate-vsphere-clusters.sh
