Abstract
According to examples, an apparatus includes a processor that may obtain and parse a pipeline code to determine how variables of the pipeline code relate to each other, and replace the variables in the parsed pipeline code with values to which the variables respectively represent, in which the values correspond to pipeline run sources and pipeline run targets of API calls. The processor may also identify how the pipeline run targets interact with the pipeline run sources of the API calls and build a dependency graph that maps the pipeline run sources with the pipeline run targets. Runtime resources may thus be mapped to source code in a pipeline run to provide visibility into actions carried out by the pipeline. This visibility may be used to determine whether there are security vulnerabilities in the pipeline run sources and/or targets such that the vulnerabilities may be addressed/overcome.
