EPSS estimates a 0.46% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.
What to do
- Check which version of zuke you run against the affected versions below, and install the vendor's latest release.
- Read the advisory on github.com for workarounds and exact fixed builds.
- Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

Official description
Zuke is a code-first, strongly typed build automation system for Deno. Prior to 1.51.0, @zuke/core writes rendered reportSummary(...) notes to GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY through writeJobSummary without applying the redactor that protects resolved secret() values in console and persisted run output. A GitHub Actions build that places secret-derived text in a summary note can publish credentials in cleartext to everyone able to view the workflow run, including unauthenticated viewers of a public repository, and the durable summary remains exposed until the run is deleted. GitHub Actions masking directives do not protect the summary file, while runs outside GitHub Actions and builds that do not summarize secret-derived text are not affected. This issue is fixed in version 1.51.0.
