/ 1 min read
🔗 Cloud Build in Google Cloud Platform poses significant security risks. Orca Security has identified vulnerabilities in Google Cloud Platform’s Cloud Build service, particularly a supply chain attack vector dubbed “Bad.Build.” Although Google addressed a specific issue related to default Service Account permissions, the broader threat remains, as attackers can exploit Cloud Build pipelines to execute malicious commands. Cisco Talos emphasizes the importance of applying the principle of least privilege and recommends monitoring for unusual actions by the Cloud Build Service Account. Additionally, they advise implementing manual approval for build triggers and utilizing features like Soft Delete and Object Versioning to mitigate risks associated with data destruction and unauthorized access.
