Miggo AIRoot Cause Analysis

The vulnerability stems from plaintext storage of AWS credentials. The commit f5bae39 shows critical changes: 1) AWSClientFactory switched awsSecretKey from String to Secret type, 2) CodeBuilder's constructor now uses Secret type for AWS secrets. These functions directly handled credential persistence without encryption in vulnerable versions. The CVE description confirms credentials were stored in config.xml files and transmitted in plaintext, matching the pre-patch function behavior.
