Supply chain attacks are increasingly exploiting flaws introduced during the CI/CD build process, where compromised packages and malicious versions can slip into widely used software. The article argues that a build application firewall, combined with deeper inspection and accurate SBOM generation, could help stop attacks like those involving SolarWinds, Axios, Trivy, LiteLLM, and Kics. #SolarWinds #Axios #Trivy #LiteLLM #Kics #InvisiRisk #TruSBOM
Keypoints
- Supply chain attacks often begin during the CI/CD build process.
- The SolarWinds incident showed how damaging build-chain compromise can be.
- North Korean actors used a hijacked Axios npm maintainer account to deliver malicious versions.
- TeamPCP targeted Trivy, LiteLLM, and Kics to gain access to CI/CD pipelines.
- A build application firewall aims to inspect packages in real time and create a more accurate SBOM.
