 # Changelog

+## Unreleased
+
+- A significant performance boost was achieved for large Taskfiles (monorepos)
+  by skipping templating altogether when the string is static (#2820 by @romnn).
+- Added `absPath` template function that resolves a path to its absolute form,
+  cleaning `..` and `.` components (#2681, #2788 by @mateenanjum).
+- Added `joinEnv` function to join paths based on your oprating system: `;` for
+  Windows and `:` elsewhere, and `joinUrl` to join URL paths. Also, added two
+  new special variables: `FILE_PATH_SEPARATOR` which returns `\` on Windows
+  and `/` elsewhere, and `PATH_LIST_SEPARATOR` which returns `;` on Windows and
+  `:` elsewhere (#2406, #2408 by @solvingj).
+- Update the shell interpreter with a regression fix (#2812, #2832 by
+  @andreynering).
+- Fix potential panic with the shell interpreter (#2810 by @trulede).
+
 ## v3.50.0 - 2026-04-13

 - Added `enum.ref` support in `requires`: enum constraints can now reference

+          <dt>Is Task production-ready?</dt>
+          <dd>
+            Yes. Task ships as a single static binary, has been in wide
+            production use since 2018, and powers the release workflows of
+            projects with millions of downloads including Arduino CLI,
+            GoReleaser, FerretDB, and Gogs.

+          <dt>Who uses Task in enterprise?</dt>
+          <dd>
+            Docker, Vercel, HashiCorp, Microsoft (Azure Sentinel), Google Cloud,
+            AWS, and Anthropic are among the organizations that ship code with a
+            <code>Taskfile.yml</code>. Task is also embedded end-to-end in

+          <dd>
+            Task uses plain YAML instead of Make’s tab-sensitive syntax, runs
+            identically on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provides built-in
+            caching based on file fingerprints. It also comes with an
+            <a href="/docs/integrations"
+              >ecosystem of editor and CI integrations</a
+            >

+          <dt>Where can I find real-world Taskfile examples?</dt>
+          <dd>
+            Every project above links directly to a public repository containing
+            a production <code>Taskfile.yml</code>. Browsing those is the

+
+# Threat Model
+
+This document outlines the security threats, assets, and mitigations for the
+Task project. It serves as a high-level, public guide and is published as part
+of our commitment to transparency.
+
+## Asset Inventory
+
+### Critical Assets
+
+- **Source Code:** The Task CLI, build scripts, and configuration files
+  (e.g., `Taskfile.yml`, `.goreleaser.yml`).
+- **Build Artifacts:** Compiled binaries, packages, and containers distributed
+  to users.
+- **Secrets:** API tokens, signing keys, and repository credentials used in
+  CI/CD and release pipelines.
+- **Release Metadata:** Version numbers, changelogs, and checksums.
+- **CI/CD Pipelines & Runners:** GitHub Actions workflows that build, test, and
+  release the project.
+- **Third-party Dependencies:** Go modules and tools used to build and
+  distribute Task.
+- **Website & Documentation:** The taskfile.dev site and installation scripts.
+
+### Asset Locations
+
+- Local developer machines
+- GitHub Actions runners
+- GitHub Releases
+- Public package registries (npm, Homebrew, Winget, Cloudsmith)
+- Source control platforms (GitHub)
+- Netlify (website hosting)
+
+## Threat Model
+
+### Actors
+
+- **Maintainers & Contributors:** Trusted users with varying levels of
+  repository access.
+- **External Attackers:** Untrusted users seeking to compromise builds,
+  releases, or user systems.
+- **Supply Chain Threats:** Malicious dependencies or compromised third-party
+  services.
+- **CI/CD Systems:** Automated agents that may be exploited if misconfigured.
+
+### Entry Points
+
+- Source code contributions (pull requests, issues)
+- Configuration files and build scripts
+- CI/CD integration and environment variables
+- Third-party dependencies
+- Release pipelines and artifact repositories
+- Remote Taskfile fetching (HTTP, Git)
+- Installation scripts
+
+### Trust Boundaries
+
+- Between the project repository and the CI/CD environment
+- Between Task and remote Taskfiles fetched over the network
+- Between artifact generation and distribution channels
+- Between the Task binary and user-defined shell commands
+
+### Threats
+
+#### Supply Chain Attacks
+
+- Compromised Go dependencies or build tools
+- Unauthorized changes to source code or configuration
+- Exploitation of third-party CI/CD or package registry services
+- Compromised installation scripts or distribution channels
+
+#### Secrets Leakage
+
+- Exposure of tokens, credentials, or signing keys in logs, error messages,
+  or artifacts
+- Hardcoded secrets in code or configuration
+- Improper secret management in CI/CD environments
+
+#### Code Execution / Injection
+
+- Malicious code execution via compromised pull requests or dependencies
+- Remote code execution vulnerabilities in Task or its dependencies
+- **Note:** Task intentionally executes user-defined shell commands as part of
+  its core functionality. Users are responsible for the commands they define in
+  their Taskfiles.
+
+#### Unauthorized Access
+
+- Unauthorized users triggering releases or accessing sensitive artifacts
+- Insecure permissions on runners, repositories, or artifact stores
+- Compromised maintainer accounts
+
+#### Data Integrity & Tampering
+
+- Tampering with build artifacts, changelogs, or metadata
+- Compromise of signing keys, leading to malicious releases
+- Man-in-the-middle attacks against remote Taskfile fetching
+
+#### Denial of Service
+
+- Abuse of CI/CD resources, bandwidth, or artifact storage
+- Overloading automated processes or API endpoints
+- Malicious Taskfiles designed to exhaust system resources
+
+## Mitigations
+
+### Supply Chain Security
+
+- Pin dependencies and use trusted sources
+- Mandatory code review and CI checks on all incoming pull requests
+- Signed commits and release tags
+- Enable immutable releases where supported
+- Run `govulncheck` on every commit and tag
+- Pin GitHub Actions to specific commit SHAs
+
+### Secrets Management
+
+- Secure storage using GitHub Secrets
+- Never log or expose secrets in build or release outputs
+- Regularly rotate secrets and monitor for suspicious activity
+- Use least-privilege tokens scoped to specific repositories
+
+### Secure Code Execution
+
+- Validate and sanitize configuration files and user inputs
+- Audit dependencies for vulnerabilities
+- HTTP is rejected for remote Taskfiles by default (requires `--insecure` flag)
+- TLS certificate verification for remote Git repositories
+
+### Access Control
+
+- Enforce least privilege for CI/CD runners, repositories, and artifact stores
+- Require multi-factor authentication for maintainers
+- Restrict release triggers to tagged releases only
+- Lower permissions of less active maintainers
+
+### Artifact Integrity
+
+- Generate checksums for all release artifacts
+- Distribute artifacts via trusted, access-controlled repositories
+- Verify signatures and checksums in installation scripts where possible
+
+### Availability Protection
+
+- Implement rate limiting and resource quotas on CI/CD jobs
+- Monitor for abnormal activity and automate alerts
+- Set timeouts on network operations (e.g., remote Taskfile fetching)
+
+## Residual Risks
+
+- Zero-day vulnerabilities in dependencies, CI/CD systems, or Task itself
+- Social engineering attacks targeting maintainers
+- Unnoticed supply chain compromises
+- Human error in configuration or secret management
+- Users fetching malicious remote Taskfiles from untrusted sources
+
+## Security Best Practices
+
+- Regularly update dependencies and build tools
+- Monitor security advisories and patch vulnerabilities promptly
+- Educate contributors on secure coding and secrets hygiene
+- Document security policies and incident response procedures
