[SAC] [GitHub] SSH private deploy key found in commit

The following is of concern, I do not participate in osgeo4mac.

Possibilities:

  • Is one of our three certificates purchased for signing? If we run out we will need to purchase more.

  • Is this a member of osgeo4mac making a mistake? And I am getting the email as an administrator of OSGeo GitHub?

Do we have a contact point for the project?

We noticed that a valid SSH private key of yours was committed to a public GitHub repository. This key is configured as a deploy key for the OSGeo/homebrew-osgeo4mac repository. Publicly disclosing a valid SSH private key would allow other people to interact with this repository, potentially altering data.

As a precautionary measure, we have unverified the SSH key. You should should generate a new SSH key and add it to the repository. We recommend you review you security log to ensure that no malicious activity has occurred: https://help.github.com/articles/reviewing-the-audit-log-for-your-organization/

It’s always a mistake to publish a private key. No matter who’s it is.

Hi,

I also received this notice and forwarded it to Denis Rouzaud (CC'ed) who has
coordinated/been involved in OSGeo4Mac efforts

There's a ticket in osgeo4mac on the topic, I commented on it there.
https://github.com/OSGeo/homebrew-osgeo4mac/issues/642

I think all OSGeo org Github admins got the email.

Thanks,
Alex

The emails from yesterday were from an attempt to fix the original
issue. Adding a public key to the repo is fine, the private key has been
retired and replaced.
