Tokens that match the format for GitLab secret keys were found in AI logs.

GitLab secrets are sensitive tokens or keys used to authenticate and authorize access to GitLab services.

‍

Remediation

Remove any exposed GitLab authentication tokens from AI logs and rotate credentials. Use GitLab’s built-in secret management solutions or third-party vaults to securely store authentication tokens. Implement AI safeguards to detect and prevent exposure of credentials in AI-generated responses.

Example Attack Scenario

A leaked GitLab token enables an attacker to access private repositories, inject malicious code into a CI/CD pipeline, and compromise the integrity of software deployments.
