Write operations (git push) not working for Harness Code in Prod 1

Summary

Between 10:38 AM and 11:54 AM PT on October 30, 2025, customers using Harness Code in Prod1 were unable to push or commit code.

A configuration issue in a recent deployment caused authentication failures for the code-service, preventing Git operations.

All other environments and services remained fully functional.

Root Cause

This was due to a misconfiguration in the Kubernetes ConfigMap, which caused the pulling of a secret from the wrong store. This misconfiguration broke the authentication and authorization flow for code-repository-service in Prod1, resulting in failed push and commit attempts.

Impact

• Developers were unable to push or commit code to Harness Code in Prod1 during the incident window.
• Other environments and services were unaffected.

Remediation

• Immediate: Corrected secret reference to the Prod1 store and redeployed the code-service.
• Permanent: Enforced validation and sanity checks in the deployment pipeline to verify environment-specific secret configurations before rollout.
