## Summary

An attacker who submits a malicious pull request could gain access to repository secrets and OIDC tokens, and could poison a shared build cache so that malicious code runs during later release processes.

## Affected

- CloudPirates-io helm-charts: fixed in 271d415975a64b7958d2740526dca870b70c8c21

## Description

CloudPirates Open Source Helm Charts is a collection of Helm charts. Prior to commit 271d415, pull_request_target workflow is vulnerable to cache poisoning and OIDC token theft. A pull_request_target workflow checks out fork code using github.event.pull_request.head.sha or .head.ref. This gives attacker-controlled code access to base repository secrets and tokens. A pull_request_target workflow writes to a shared Actions cache. A subsequent release or publish workflow restores from the same cache scope, allowing a poisoned cache entry to execute during release. This issue has been patched via commit 271d415.
