GHSA-xgpc-q899-67p8: Fleet doesn’t validate a server’s certificate when connecting through SSH

### Impact A vulnerability has been identified within Fleet where, by default, Fleet will automatically trust a remote server’s certificate when connecting through SSH if the certificate isn’t set in the `known_hosts` file. This could allow the execution of a man-in-the-middle (MitM) attack against Fleet. In case the server that is being connected to has a trusted entry in the known_hosts file, then Fleet will correctly check the authenticity of the presented certificate. Please consult the associated [MITRE ATT&CK - Technique - Adversary-in-the-Middle](https://attack.mitre.org/techniques/T1557/) for further information about this category of attack. ### Patches Patched versions include releases `v0.10.12`, `v0.11.7` and `v0.12.2`. The fix involves some key areas with the following changes: - Git latest commit fetcher sources `known_hosts` entries from the following locations, in decreasing order of priority: 1. Secret referenced in a `GitRepo`’s `clientSecretName` field; 2. ...
