offensive-cicd-secrets

Comprehensive secrets extraction methodology targeting CI/CD environments across all major platforms. Covers environment variable extraction from build contexts, exploitation of vault and secrets-manager misconfigurations (HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, Azure Key Vault, GCP Secret Manager), runner and agent token abuse for lateral movement, OIDC federation attacks exploiting trust relationships between CI/CD providers and cloud platforms, build log leakage analysis for inadvertently exposed credentials, cache poisoning techniques for credential exfiltration, platform-specific credential store exploitation (GitHub Actions secrets, GitLab CI variables, Jenkins credential providers), service connection and service account abuse in Azure DevOps and GCP, and Docker registry credential theft from build environments. Maps to MITRE ATT&CK T1552 (Unsecured Credentials) and its sub-techniques. Each section provides enumeration procedures, extraction techniques, and post-exploitation pivoting guidance for using recovered secrets to expand access.

# Offensive CI/CD Secrets Extraction

Secrets in CI/CD environments are the primary objective for pipeline compromise. Every pipeline
holds credentials -- deployment keys, cloud provider tokens, API secrets, registry passwords,
database connection strings -- and the mechanisms protecting them are consistently weaker than
those guarding production secrets. You exploit the fundamental tension in CI/CD design: pipelines
need credentials to deploy, but the environments executing pipelines are transient, shared, and
often accessible to anyone who can open a pull request.

This skill systematically covers every extraction path across CI/CD platforms, from trivial
environment variable dumps to sophisticated OIDC federation abuse. You enumerate what secrets
exist, determine which extraction technique applies, recover the credentials, and pivot to
expand your access.
