sigstore-website VS harden-runner

For anyone browsing in Android and confused, the signature website has a major design issue hiding the menu button on some devices. You need to scroll the page to the right: https://github.com/sigstore/sigstore-website/issues/132

Fortunately there is a great free online tool that help you by doing all the hard work (it will open a pull-request and automatically fix issues).

If using GitHub Actions for CI/ CD, Harden Runner (https://github.com/step-security/harden-runner) can be used to audit and block DNS exfiltration. Outbound calls from CI are predictable (to source repo, artifact registry, etc.) and don't change often.

As part of writing tests for Harden Runner GitHub Action, which prevents such attacks, there was a need to write attack simulator for these attacks.

I am not too familiar with GitLab, to be honest, but: - Commit/PR linting (to be in tandem with semantic versioning) is implemented via third-party GitHub Actions (https://github.com/amannn/action-semantic-pull-request and https://github.com/wagoid/commitlint-github-action), these might be hard to transfer - Blocking egress to mitigate supply chain attacks is performed by step security’s Harden Runner (https://github.com/step-security/harden-runner), you may raise a question there about GitLab support - CodeQL support is GitHub only AFAIK (but you would have to verify it)

I've found StepSecurity's tooling helpful in getting my repos secured.

I agree. There are projects such as https://github.com/ossf/package-analysis and https://github.com/step-security/harden-runner that do behavior analysis. Disclaimer: I’m maintainer of the second one.

So if you are concerned about this, I'd suggest looking at the following:

* OpenSSF Scorecard Action - https://github.com/ossf/scorecard#scorecards-github-action

* Step Security Harden Action - https://github.com/step-security/harden-runner

I realize that this means trusting these providers but they seem at least tacitly blessed by GitHub. https://docs.github.com/en/actions/security-guides/security-...

Few hours back several malicious packages were released on npm registry. This video shows how some of these packages are making outbound calls as part of the preinstall step when executed in a GitHub Actions workflow.
