Pull Request Overview

The proposed updates to GitHub Actions introduce security vulnerabilities and potential stability issues. While the changes align with the requirement to update dependencies, the reliance on mutable version tags for third-party actions is a security anti-pattern. Furthermore, the major version upgrade in the email notification workflow carries a high risk of breaking changes. These security flaws and potential logic regressions should be addressed by pinning actions to commit SHAs and validating configuration compatibility before merging.

About this PR

  • A consistent pattern of using mutable version tags for third-party GitHub Actions was observed. For improved security and protection against supply chain attacks, it is a best practice to pin these actions to a full-length commit SHA rather than version tags.

Test suggestions

  • Verify CodeQL workflow uses v4.37.9 for init, analyze, and upload-sarif actions.
  • Verify push-email-notify workflow uses v18 for action-send-mail.
  • Verify Secret Scanner workflow uses v3.97.1 for trufflehog.

🔴 HIGH RISK

This update involves a major version jump that likely contains breaking changes. Additionally, using a mutable version tag for a third-party action is a security risk. Pinning the action to a full-length commit SHA is recommended to ensure the workflow is immutable. Please also verify that the current SMTP configuration remains compatible with the new version.

Looks like these dependencies are updatable in another way, so this is no longer needed.
