zizmor

Static analysis for GitHub Actions workflows to find security issues.

zizmor is a static analysis tool for CI/CD systems.

It can find and fix security issues in common CI/CD setups, including GitHub Actions, Dependabot, and pre-commit. Some of the things zizmor finds:

  • Template injection vulnerabilities, leading to attacker-controlled code execution
  • Accidental credential persistence and leakage
  • Excessive permission scopes and credential grants to runners
  • Impostor commits and confusable git references
  • ...and much more!
