What Are The Security Risks of CI/CD Plugin Architectures?

**What Are The Security Risks of CI/CD Plugin Architectures?**

CI/CD pipelines are deeply embedded in modern software delivery. They interact with source code, secrets, cloud credentials, and production deployment targets.  That position makes them an attractive target for attackers, and the plugin ecosystems that power many CI/CD platforms are an increasingly common point of entry. This article explains how plugin-centric CI/CD architectures create security risk, what the vulnerability data actually shows, and how integrated platforms handle these risks differently.  We’ll also be direct about TeamCity’s own security history, because we think that context matters when a CI/CD vendor writes about security. What is a plugin-centric CI/CD architecture. A plugin-centric CI/CD architecture is one where core platform functionality (integrations, triggers, build steps, notifications, and so on) is delivered through independently developed and maintained plugins rather than built into the platform itself...
