Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

The push workflow now supports the gpg-migration branch, uses updated reusable workflow revisions, and passes GPG_PRIVATE_KEY to three Maven workflows. Git now ignores the .github/keys/ directory.

Changes

GPG migration workflow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Workflow triggers and key handling
.github/workflows/push-trigger.yml, .gitignore
The workflow adds the gpg-migration push trigger, updates the kernel, Nexus publish, and API-test workflow references, and passes GPG_PRIVATE_KEY to each invocation. Git ignores .github/keys/.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes

Mergeability Score: 🟠 High · up to 3e743

The workflow grants access to the GPG signing key while referencing mutable external workflow branches, so a later branch change could run unreviewed code and compromise artifact signing or release integrity. Pin the affected workflow references to an approved commit SHA before merging.

Poem

A migration branch now starts,
GPG keys pass through the flows,
Maven builds use updated paths,
Local key files stay ignored,
Push events follow the new route.

36-36: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration

⚠️ Unverified finding
Sandbox verification was unavailable.

Verify the reusable workflow secret contract.

Confirm that mosip/kattu at master-java21 declares GPG_PRIVATE_KEY under on.workflow_call.secrets in both maven-build.yml and maven-publish-to-nexus.yml. Confirm that those workflows import the key without logging it. If the declaration is missing, the caller can fail workflow validation.

As per path instructions, the secret is referenced through ${{ secrets.GPG_PRIVATE_KEY }} and is not hardcoded.

Also applies to: 51-51, 112-112

.gitignore (1)

37-37: 🔒 Security & Privacy

⚠️ Unverified finding
Sandbox verification was unavailable.

Verify key removal from the index and rotate exposed keys.

.gitignore only affects untracked files. It does not remove .github/keys/mosipgpgkey_*.gpg from the index or from Git history. If a private key was committed, revoke and rotate GPG_PRIVATE_KEY before relying on this rule. This protects MOSIP artifact-signing integrity.

Comment thread .github/workflows/push-trigger.yml
The master-java21 branch of mosip/kattu does not declare
GPG_PRIVATE_KEY as an accepted secret on maven-build.yml/
maven-publish-to-nexus.yml yet; that support currently only exists
on the gpgupdate-masterj21 branch. Repoint the affected job refs so
the newly-added secret is actually valid, per CodeRabbit review on
mosip/commons#1845.

Comment thread .github/workflows/push-trigger.yml
Reference PR mosip/imagedecoder#55 only removes
the leaked key files from tracking; it does not add a .gitignore entry.
Dropping the .github/keys/ ignore rule here to match that pattern.
Note per CodeRabbit: this alone does not remediate the exposure - the
key must still be treated as compromised, rotated, and purged from
history at the org level.
