Security Fixes

Harden Runner

Harden-Runner is an open-source security agent for the GitHub-hosted runner to prevent software supply chain attacks. It prevents exfiltration of credentials, detects tampering of source code during build, and enables running jobs without sudo access.

Pinned Dependencies

Pinning GitHub Actions to specific versions or commit SHAs ensures that your workflows remain consistent and secure.
Unpinned actions can lead to unexpected changes or vulnerabilities caused by upstream updates.

    {
        "Severity": "High",
        "Recommendation": "Avoid hardcoding sensitive information in the codebase",
        "Description": "Hardcoding sensitive information, such as API credentials, in the codebase can expose them to unauthorized access.",
        "Remediation": "Store sensitive information in secure credential storage solutions like environment variables or secure vaults, and refer to them in the code."

    {
        "Severity": "Medium",
        "Recommendation": "Use specific commit hashes instead of generic references in code",
        "Description": "Using specific commit hashes in code references ensures that the codebase is stable and secure. Generic references like 'int' can lead to ambiguity and potential security risks.",
        "Remediation": "Use specific commit hashes or tags to reference dependencies or external code in the project."

        "Severity": "High",
        "Recommendation": "Ensure dependencies are pinned to specific versions for reproducibility and security",
        "Description": "Using a specific commit hash for a Docker image tag can make the build non-reproducible and prone to security vulnerabilities.",
        "Remediation": "Instead of using a commit hash, pin the Docker image tag to a specific version number."

        "Description": "Storing secrets like PAT (Personal Access Token) directly in code can expose them to potential risks and unauthorized access.",
        "Remediation": "Use a secure and encrypted secret management solution like GitHub Secrets or a dedicated secret management tool to store sensitive tokens securely."

    {
        "Severity": "Medium",
        "Recommendation": "Use known versions of third-party dependencies",
        "Description": "Using specific versions of third-party dependencies helps in ensuring compatibility, stability, and security of the codebase.",
        "Remediation": "Specify exact versions of third-party dependencies in the package or manifest files to prevent unexpected changes or vulnerabilities."
