It aims to highlight repositories that are frequently targeted by threats, potentially indicating underlying vulnerabilities. The detection leverages findings and intermediate findings created by detections from Dev Sec Ops analytic stories. The search sums risk scores and captures source and user information, focusing on high-risk scores above 100 and sources with more than three occurrences. Identifying these high-risk repositories is crucial, as successful exploitation could lead to significant data breaches or infrastructure compromise. The analytic is designed to work with Splunk Enterprise, Splunk Enterprise Security, and Splunk Cloud.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"attack-chain\"\u003eAttack Chain\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn attacker gains initial access to a DevSecOps environment, potentially through compromised credentials or vulnerable code (T1204.003).\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe attacker interacts with repositories, potentially introducing malicious code or exploiting existing vulnerabilities.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecurity tools within the DevSecOps pipeline generate risk findings based on the attacker\u0026rsquo;s actions.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThese risk findings are aggregated and correlated, resulting in increased risk scores for specific repositories.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Splunk analytic identifies repositories with high accumulated risk scores (above 100) and multiple source occurrences (more than 3).\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecurity analysts investigate the flagged repositories to determine the nature of the high-risk activity.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf malicious activity is confirmed, incident response procedures are initiated to contain the threat and remediate the vulnerabilities.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuccessful exploitation of the repository can lead to data breaches, infrastructure compromise, and further lateral movement within the environment.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ol\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"impact\"\u003eImpact\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuccessful exploitation of identified high-risk repositories can lead to significant data breaches, infrastructure compromise, and disruption of development pipelines.
