MVP categories (1-5) are derivable from pipeline YAML alone. Stretch categories (6-9) need heuristics or metadata enrichment.

Variants

AuthorityPropagation

OverPrivilegedIdentity

UnpinnedAction

UntrustedWithAuthority

ArtifactBoundaryCrossing

FloatingImage

LongLivedCredential

PersistedCredential

Credential written to disk by a step (e.g. persistCredentials: true on a checkout). Disk-persisted credentials are accessible to all subsequent steps and any process with filesystem access, unlike runtime-only HasAccessTo authority.

TriggerContextMismatch

Dangerous trigger type (pull_request_target / pr) combined with secret/identity access.

CrossWorkflowAuthorityChain

Authority (secret/identity) flows into an opaque external workflow via DelegatesTo.

AuthorityCycle

Circular DelegatesTo chain — workflow calls itself transitively.

UpliftWithoutAttestation

Privileged workflow (OIDC/broad identity) with no provenance attestation step.

SelfMutatingPipeline

Step writes to the environment gate ($GITHUB_ENV, pipeline variables) — authority can propagate.

CheckoutSelfPrExposure

PR-triggered pipeline checks out the repository — attacker-controlled fork code lands on the runner.

VariableGroupInPrJob

ADO variable group consumed by a PR-triggered job, crossing trust boundary.

SelfHostedPoolPrHijack

Self-hosted agent pool used in a PR-triggered job that also checks out the repository.

ServiceConnectionScopeMismatch

Broad-scope ADO service connection reachable from a PR-triggered job without OIDC.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for FindingCategory

fn clone(&self) -> FindingCategory

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for FindingCategory

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for FindingCategory

fn deserialize<__D>(__deserializer: __D) -> Result<Self, __D::Error>

where __D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl Hash for FindingCategory

fn hash<__H: Hasher>(&self, state: &mut __H)

Feeds this value into the given Hasher.

fn hash_slice<H>(data: &[Self], state: &mut H)

where H: Hasher, Self: Sized,

Feeds a slice of this type into the given Hasher.

impl PartialEq for FindingCategory

fn eq(&self, other: &FindingCategory) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl Serialize for FindingCategory

fn serialize<__S>(&self, __serializer: __S) -> Result<__S::Ok, __S::Error>

where __S: Serializer,

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.

impl Copy for FindingCategory

impl Eq for FindingCategory

impl StructuralPartialEq for FindingCategory
