Arbeitsplatz
Die Pandemie hat es geschafft, dass sich jeder von uns merkwürdige Dinge angewöhnt.

cloud based CI/CD issues – travis-ci
Travis-CI published a security bulletin the other day, describing a special condition that would allow to access secrets belonging to a foreign repository in Github or Bitbucket.
