    Learning so much from this thread. If used these tools when i knew what to look for but thats been the tricky bit.

    psanford also mentioned truffleHog and others, lstamour mentioned https://github.com/cloud-gov/caulking which is built on gitleaks which like a lot. caulking's customized list of patterns for gitleaks is hee https://github.com/cloud-gov/caulking/blob/master/local.toml Looks like it would have found the keys in my example case no problem.

  • PyPI new user and new project registrations temporarily suspended

    > Recently I've seen someone on Reddit trying to automate the creation of PyPI projects through GitHub Actions. The person was complaining that the first deployment couldn't use an API key for that project since it didn't exist. So I'm not surprised some people are trying to do the same for malicious purposes.

    Sorry for the tangent, but: you can do this now! If you use trusted publishing, you can register a "pending publisher" for a project that doesn't exist yet. When the trusted publisher (like GitHub Actions) is used, it'll create the project[1].

    All of this is supported transparently by the official publishing action for GitHub Actions[2].

    In the documentation example, I see that the action yaml file contains the line uses: pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish@release/v1. I have never done this before and almost went with that, but I am not sure why the example shows v1 hardcoded, so I don't think I actually want this to happen. It doesn't seem to be well explained though, and the pypi-publish action repo was also quiet on this. Is this saying that it will create a release branch in my repo and call the release v1? Or how will this appear after I've done it? Will I have to manually change this v1 to v0.1.1 in the actions file AND the pyproject.toml?

    Yeah, you're uploading to PyPi in your pipeline, great. The custom github action still uses twine because the stdlib falls short on BASIC security. https://github.com/pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish/blob/unstable/v1/twine-upload.sh

    I never bothered with pypi myself but I hope the nudge into github actions helps you. I've found the following promising github action: https://github.com/pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish
