Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

The push workflow now includes gpg-migration, uses the gpgupdate-masterj21 Maven workflows, and passes GPG_PRIVATE_KEY to build and publish jobs. The repository ignores .github/keys/.

Changes

GPG migration CI

Layer / File(s) Summary
Workflow trigger and GPG secret wiring
.github/workflows/push-trigger.yml, .gitignore
The workflow adds the gpg-migration branch, updates the Maven build and Nexus publish workflow references, and passes GPG_PRIVATE_KEY to both workflows. .github/keys/ is ignored.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~3 minutes

Mergeability Score: 🟡 Moderate · up to fb6cd

The PR moves GPG private-key access into reusable build and publish jobs, but those workflows remain pinned to a mutable reference, allowing later changes to run with the signing key; the trigger can also permit overlapping build and publish runs. Merge readiness is moderate until these risks are fixed or explicitly accepted.

Poem

A migration branch starts the flow,
Maven workflows now know where to go.
GPG keys pass through the build,
Local key files stay concealed.
The publish path follows suit.

42-42: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration

⚠️ Unverified finding
Sandbox verification was unavailable.

Verify the reusable-workflow secret contract.

GPG_PRIVATE_KEY uses the correct secret expression and is not hardcoded. Confirm that both mosip/kattu/.github/workflows/maven-build.yml@master-java21 and mosip/kattu/.github/workflows/maven-publish-to-nexus.yml@master-java21 declare workflow_call.secrets.GPG_PRIVATE_KEY, import the key, and use it before the Maven GPG signing step. Otherwise, the caller can fail on an undeclared secret or Maven can fail to sign artifacts.

As per path instructions, workflow secrets must use ${{ secrets.X }}; both changed call sites follow that rule.

Also applies to: 57-57

9-9: 🔒 Security & Privacy | 🔴 Critical | 🏗️ Heavy lift

⚠️ Unverified finding
Sandbox verification was unavailable.

Rotate the signing key and purge reachable repository history.

.github/keys/ prevents future tracking. It does not remove key blobs from existing commits. If the previously tracked mosipgpgkey_*.gpg files contain private signing material, deleting them from the current tree is not sufficient. Revoke and rotate the old key, then remove the key blobs through the approved MOSIP secret-removal process. This creates MOSIP release-integrity and compliance risk because an exposed signing key can authorize unauthorized artifacts.

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.
