Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

How We Converted a GitHub Tool Into a General Purpose Webhook Proxy to Supercharge Our Integration Development
Doron Guttman and Roei Ben-Harush @ [arnica], April 2023
- GitGoat v2 is released – fake commits with real vulnerable code
- GitGoat v2 is released: multiple vulnerable projects with amended commit history
- Show HN: GitGoat v2 is released – fake commits with real vulnerable code

Personal + Work accounts or one account for both?
The downside is that developers can choose to avoid using one of the controls above, such as enabling MFA. In that case, the developers will likely prefer to create a new account and the use git config user.email [personal_email] to add the stats to their accounts. It will require the company to work harder on mapping the author (from the git config) to the pusher of the code (arnica.io correlates this data in the GitHub user inventory, so it is possible to solve with some engineering work).

Try to take permissions from devs…
This meme was created by arnica.io, which solves it. The nice thing about it is that the continuous analysis of excessive permissions is free forever for unlimited users.

Tell HN: GitHub Apps bug created tokens with elevated privileges
You can assess all GitHub app permissions on https://arnica.io. The excessive permissions are presented at the end of the data ingestion process. This is part of the freemium.

GotGoat - deliberately misconfigured GitHub organization
Pretty cool way to generate dummy data on GitHub, such as invite members, add them to Teams, commit code and secrets, raise & review PRs, and configure different branch protection policies (such as CODEOWNERS). Link: https://github.com/arnica-ext/GitGoat

Infrastructure as Code Security [Security Zines]
The GitGuardian's CLI, ggshield, was recently updated to support IaC misconfigurations scanning: it's as easy as ggshield iac scan path_to_iac_main_folder.

Security scanning
I agree that code scanning is really important, the best way to convince others is to identify high-risk threats in source code and present them to the decision-makers. For example, scanning Secrets is great for showing how repositories can be a massive vulnerability and identifying some low-hanging fruit, especially in the git history. Attackers are really after git repository access for this reason and there are plenty of open-source or free tools that you can use to illustrate the problem. Git-Secrets, Truffle Hog. These aren't great for a long-term commercial solution, something like GitGuardian is a better commercial tool but if the goal is just to illustrate the problem then finding some high-value secrets with free tools is a good way to convince the security personnel to invest in some solutions. Then the door is open to having more conversations as you have already proven the risk.

Thinking Like a Hacker: Abusing Stolen Private Keys
First up is the leaked TLS private key. Poor Corp added their wildcard certificate to their GitLab image, but they didn’t consider that anyone could steal the private key from the Docker image once published on Docker Hub. Rather than adding sensitive files and hardcoded environment variables to their containers while they were being built, Poor Corp should have used runtime environment variables and mounted volumes to pass secrets into the container—by the way, ggshield, the secrets detection CLI from GitGuardian, has a command for scanning Docker images. If you find that you’ve also made this mistake, you need to immediately revoke any certificates or credentials that were exposed.

How to make security policies a team effort
GitGuardian’s CLI, ggshield, can be installed as a pre-commit hook on a developer’s workstation to act like a security seatbelt preventing any secret from being committed locally in the first place. If a developer chooses to bypass the guardrail and push a secret anyway, the event is reported in the GitGuardian dashboard. This allows security teams to have eyes on any possible policy issues as developers build—all without holding up their progress. These tools can detect risks, watch for vulnerabilities, and notify the right people in a non-intrusive way.

Life is Too Short to Review Spaces
ggshield is one of the tools we develop at GitGuardian to help secure the codebase. Integrated as a hook it will scan the content of the git patch to make sure it does not contains any secret like an API token.
