Three findings from the certctl architecture diligence audit's Phase 1
bundle (Supply-Chain Hardening) closed together in one PR since they all
touch .github/workflows/ + repo root.
RED-1 — delete tracked precompiled binary
- deploy/test/f5-mock-icontrol/f5-mock-icontrol (8.6 MB ARM64 ELF) was
tracked alongside the Go source that builds it. The fixture's
Dockerfile already uses a multi-stage build that re-runs
'go build' inside the container (line 13), so the tracked binary
was vestigial — never actually consumed by the test wiring.
- git rm'd. Path added to .gitignore so it doesn't re-land.
- No Makefile target needed; the Dockerfile is the rebuild path.
RED-2 — SHA-pin every GitHub Action
- Pre: 37 of 41 'uses:' lines were tag-pinned (@v4 etc); only
4 were SHA-pinned (sigstore/cosign-installer + anchore/sbom-action).
- Post: 0 / 41. Every 'uses:' line is now '@<40-char-sha> # vN'
(the trailing comment preserves the human-readable version for
operator audit). SHA-pinning closes the standard supply-chain
attack vector against GitHub Actions consumers.
- SHAs resolved live via the GitHub API; spot-checked one.
TEST-L2 — npm audit hard gate
- Added 'npm audit --omit=dev --audit-level=high' step to the
Frontend Build job in ci.yml. --omit=dev excludes vitest/vite/
eslint/etc which don't ship to operators.
- Local run today: 0 vulnerabilities; gate enters with no triage
backlog. Catches future regressions.
New CI guards (regression-prevention):
- scripts/ci-guards/no-tag-pinned-actions.sh — fails the build if
a future PR adds 'uses: foo/bar@v2' instead of SHA-pinning.
- scripts/ci-guards/no-precompiled-binary.sh — runs file(1) over
git ls-files output; fails on any tracked ELF/Mach-O/PE.
- Both pass locally. CI's existing loop over scripts/ci-guards/*.sh
picks them up automatically.

Closes the 2026-04-25 audit's final-closure cluster. Score 51/55 -> 54/55
(98% closed); deferred 4/7 -> 7/7 (100%). All severity-graded findings now
closed except M-029 (frontend per-PR migration backlog, by design incremental).
L-004 (CWE-924) — dual-key API rotation overlap window:
internal/config/config.go::ParseNamedAPIKeys rewritten to allow same-name
duplicate entries iff admin flag matches. Mismatched-admin entries rejected
at startup (privilege escalation guard); exact (name,key) duplicates rejected
(typo guard — rotation requires DIFFERENT keys under the same name). Startup
INFO log per name with multiple entries surfaces the active rotation window.
NewAuthWithNamedKeys was already shaped correctly (constant-time hash compare
across all entries, same UserKey + AdminKey for either bearer); Bundle B's
M-025 per-user rate-limit bucket and audit-trail actor inherit consistency
across the rollover automatically. 8 new tests pin the contract end-to-end.
docs/security.md::API key rotation walks the 6-step zero-downtime rollover.
D-003 — Mutation testing wired:
security-deep-scan.yml gets a go-mutesting step covering ./internal/crypto/...,
./internal/pkcs7/..., ./internal/connector/issuer/local/... with per-package
summary lines extracted into go-mutesting.txt artefact.
D-007 — Frontend semgrep wired (recon found Bundle 7's wiring claim was false):
security-deep-scan.yml gets a 'semgrep p/react-security' step running
returntocorp/semgrep:latest --config=p/react-security against /src/web/src;
results uploaded as semgrep-react.json.
D-004 + D-005 — Operator runbook published:
docs/testing-strategy.md (NEW) consolidates per-tool local-run procedures,
acceptance thresholds, and triage paths for go-mutesting, ZAP baseline DAST,
testssl.sh, and semgrep p/react-security. Closes the 'wired CI-only, no
local-run validation' framing for D-004/D-005 by giving operators the same
commands the CI workflow runs.
