TL;DR

The bulk Variables and Connections endpoints write submitted values to the audit log in clear text. The audit-log masker recognises only top-level request fields, and bulk requests nest their entities below that level, so no masking is applied to them. A user with audit-log read access, without Variable or Connection read access, can recover the values, and the Connection extra copy is stored unencrypted in the log. The fix masks the nested entities before they are logged.

Who does this affect?

You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range and an authenticated user with audit-log read access can view bulk Variable or Connection updates.
