Miggo AIRoot Cause Analysis

The vulnerability stems from two key issues:

  1. In TaskInstance.get_rendered_template_fields, the pre-2.3.1 code path for unmasked template rendering of pending tasks (via RenderedTaskInstanceFields initialization without proper redaction) exposed secrets.
  2. The mask_secret function's conditional logic (checking settings.MASK_SECRETS_IN_LOGS) prevented secret masking in non-running task contexts. The patch removed this conditional check and enforced redaction through direct calls to redact() in template rendering. The commit diff and CVE description explicitly show these functions were modified to address the exposure mechanism.
