Problem
It has been discovered that user credentials have been logged as plaintext when explicitly using log level debug, which is not the _default_ configuration.
Solution
Update to TYPO3 versions 7.6.52 ELTS, 8.7.41 ELTS, 9.5.28, 10.4.18, 11.3.1 that fix the problem described.
Credits
Thanks to Ingo Schmitt who reported this issue, and to TYPO3 core & security team member Benni Mack who fixed the issue.

Is GHSA-34fr-fhqr-7235 in any of your client repos?
Checking one package by hand is fine. Checking it across forty client projects is not. NPMscan reads the lockfiles in every GitHub repo you pick, finds each project with an affected typo3/cms-core, and gives you the command that fixes it.
