The Full Story
We now have a brand-new class of CI/CD workflow vulnerabilities named Cordyceps, which is highly appropriate since it behaves like a brain-controlling fungus. This critical exploitable pattern directly affects over three hundred GitHub repositories, potentially turning their automated pipelines into a playground for supply-chain hijackers. Shielding our pipelines from this creeping rot means auditing our workflow patterns immediately, assuming anyone actually has the time to look at configuration files before the next disaster strikes.
