Advanced1–2 hoursCOMMUNITY ANALYSISSASTTrivySecret scanning

Prompt

Perform a DevSecOps review of this repository.
Cover: dependency risk, secrets handling, build reproducibility, container hardening, pipeline permissions, deployment gates.
For each finding give: severity, file path evidence, exploit scenario, remediation, effort estimate.
Do not report findings you cannot evidence with a file path.

Problem

Ad-hoc reviews miss whole categories depending on the reviewer.

Goal

An evidenced finding list ordered by remediation value.

Context

Any application repository with CI configuration in-tree.

Expected Output

Findings table with severity, evidence, exploit scenario, remediation, effort.

Steps

  • Run the review
  • Verify each finding's file path yourself
  • Triage into now / next / accept
  • Track accepted risk explicitly

Validation

  • Reproduce at least the top three findings manually
  • Cross-check against your scanner output

Security Considerations

  • Treat AI findings as leads, not verdicts
  • Never auto-remediate security findings without review

Lessons Learned

  • Requiring path evidence removes most hallucinated findings
  • Effort estimates make triage conversations concrete
