Which Cosmonaut was a KGB Agent?

A column by William Safire in the NY Times about William Casey's
technology disinformation campaign against the KGB included this
aside:

"...After studying the list of hundreds of Soviet agents and
purchasers (including one cosmonaut) assigned to this penetration in
the U.S. and Japan, Weiss counseled against deportation..."

Now some cosmonauts were known GRU, but any idea which one was
recruited for this KGB operation?

According to http://www.loyola.edu/dept/politics/...ll_dossier.pdf
(p.123; PDF p.3) it was one of the Apollo-Soyuz cosmonauts or, I'd
suppose, one of their back-ups. See

possibilities.
