ci security

About this tag
The ci security tag covers vulnerabilities and security practices relevant to continuous integration pipelines and developer tooling. Discussions include CVE-2023-24531 in the Go toolchain, where the go env command can expose environment variables to shell injection if output is executed unsafely, and CVE-2024-32465 in Git, which allows attacks via untrusted archives containing a .git directory. Both issues highlight risks in CI environments where scripts process tool output or handle external repositories. The tag emphasizes patching, safe scripting, and mitigation strategies to protect CI workflows from these and similar threats.
