detecting-supply-chain-attacks-in-ci-cd
Scans GitHub Actions workflows and CI/CD pipeline configurations for supply chain attack vectors including unpinned actions, script injection via expressions, dependency confusion, and secrets exposure. Uses PyGithub and YAML parsing for automated audit. Use when hardening CI/CD pipelines or investigating compromised build systems.
What this skill does
# Detecting Supply Chain Attacks in CI/CD
## When to Use
- When investigating security incidents that require detecting supply chain attacks in ci cd
- When building detection rules or threat hunting queries for this domain
- When SOC analysts need structured procedures for this analysis type
- When validating security monitoring coverage for related attack techniques
## Prerequisites
- Familiarity with security operations concepts and tools
- Access to a test or lab environment for safe execution
- Python 3.8+ with required dependencies installed
- Appropriate authorization for any testing activities
## Instructions
Scan CI/CD workflow files for supply chain risks by parsing GitHub Actions YAML,
checking for unpinned dependencies, script injection vectors, and secrets exposure.
```python
import yaml
from pathlib import Path
for wf in Path(".github/workflows").glob("*.yml"):
with open(wf) as f:
workflow = yaml.safe_load(f)
for job_name, job in workflow.get("jobs", {}).items():
for step in job.get("steps", []):
uses = step.get("uses", "")
if uses and "@" in uses and not uses.split("@")[1].startswith("sha"):
print(f"Unpinned action: {uses} in {wf.name}")
```
Key supply chain risks:
1. Unpinned GitHub Actions (using @main instead of SHA)
2. Script injection via ${{ github.event }} expressions
3. Overly permissive GITHUB_TOKEN permissions
4. Third-party actions with write access to repo
5. Dependency confusion via public/private package name collision
## Examples
```python
# Check for script injection in run steps
for step in job.get("steps", []):
run_cmd = step.get("run", "")
if "${{" in run_cmd and "github.event" in run_cmd:
print(f"Script injection risk: {run_cmd[:80]}")
```

appbuilder-action-scaffolder
IncludedCreate, implement, deploy, and debug Adobe Runtime actions with consistent layout, validation, and error handling. Use this skill whenever the user needs to add actions to an App Builder project, understand action structure (params, response format, web/raw actions), configure actions in the manifest, use App Builder SDKs (State, Files, Events, database), deploy and invoke actions via CLI, debug action issues, or implement patterns such as webhook receivers, custom event providers, journaling consumers, large payload redirects, action sequence pipelines, and Asset Compute workers. Also trigger when users mention serverless functions in Adobe context, action logging, IMS authentication for actions, or cron-style scheduled actions.
orchestrating-datacloud
IncludedSalesforce Data Cloud product orchestrator for connect→prepare→harmonize→segment→act workflows. Use this skill when the user needs a multi-step Data Cloud pipeline, cross-phase troubleshooting, or data space and data kit management. TRIGGER when: user needs a multi-step Data Cloud pipeline, asks to set up or troubleshoot Data Cloud across phases, manages data spaces or data kits, or wants a cross-phase sf data360 workflow. DO NOT TRIGGER when: work is isolated to a single phase (use the matching phase-specific skill), the task is STDM/session tracing/parquet telemetry (use observing-agentforce), standard CRM SOQL (use querying-soql), or Apex implementation (use generating-apex).
