OpenSSF Open Source Project Security Baseline (OSPS Baseline) OSPS-GV-04.01: OSPS-GV-04.01 Require Formal Review of Permission Grants

OSPS-GV-04 Require Formal Review of Permission Grants (maturity level 3). Requirement: The project documentation MUST have a policy that code collaborators are reviewed prior to granting escalated permissions to sensitive resources. Objective of the control: Ensure that code contributors are vetted and reviewed before being granted elevated permissions to sensitive resources within the project, reducing the risk of unauthorized access or misuse. Recommendation: Publish an enforceable policy in the project documentation that requires code collaborators to be reviewed and approved before being granted escalated permissions to sensitive resources, such as merge approval or access to secrets. It is recommended that vetting includes establishing a justifiable lineage of identity such as confirming the contributor's association with a known trusted organization.
