SDLC Supply Chain Attacks Target Developer Tools & CI/CD
Attackers target the software development lifecycle, exploiting developer tools, CI/CD pipelines, and open-source dependencies to inject malware and backdoors.
- Immediate impact: Attackers compromise developer environments and CI/CD pipelines, leading to widespread software supply chain poisoning.
- Affected systems: Developer laptops, IDE extensions, package managers, and cloud infrastructure are all vulnerable.
- Remediation: Implement strict execution controls and continuous visibility across local, pipeline, and cloud environments.
