Docker Hub gets OIDC federation for GitHub Actions, retiring the PAT-in-a-secret pattern

Docker has added OpenID Connect authentication for GitHub Actions on Team, Business and Docker Hardened Images plans, so workflows push and pull images with a short-lived per-run token instead of a stored Personal Access Token. It closes off one of the last static credentials still sitting in most Actions repos.

npm walls off 2FA-bypass tokens from account and package management

As of July 31, npm granular access tokens configured to bypass 2FA can no longer perform sensitive account, organisation or package management actions. Those calls now demand an interactive 2FA challenge, and the same tokens are on a January 2027 timer to lose direct publish rights too.

GTIG and Mandiant publish a supply-chain hardening playbook aimed at CI/CD teams

Google's Threat Intelligence Group and Mandiant have released a joint guide on defending against software supply chain compromise, mapping four control categories onto the concrete pipeline levers most teams already own: short-lived tokens, ephemeral runners, package cooldowns and dependency verification.

Auditors, OIDC and the trust policy most teams get wrong

The npm worm that shipped with valid SLSA provenance

A DevOps.com analysis of the Miasma npm worm makes an uncomfortable case: signing and provenance told the honest truth, and the pipeline still shipped malware. When the build platform itself is the attack surface, a green attestation is a description of the failure, not a defence against it.

GitHub Agentic Workflows drop personal access tokens for the built-in Actions token

Agentic workflows on GitHub can now authenticate with the ephemeral GITHUB_TOKEN instead of a long-lived personal access token. It is a quiet credential-hygiene win that closes one of the messier blast radii in agent-driven CI.
