+# write permissions and access to secrets, but `github.event.pull_request.*`
+# carries attacker-controlled values from the PR head. Any workflow that
+# subsequently checks out, builds, tests, or executes code referenced from
+# the PR head ref is vulnerable to "pwn requests" — arbitrary remote code
+# execution by anyone who can open a PR against the repo.
+#
+# Legitimate uses (labeling, commenting, status checks on fork PRs) exist
+# but are rare and high-risk. Prefer `pull_request`. If `pull_request_target`
+# is required, never check out `github.event.pull_request.head.*`, scope
+# `permissions:` to the minimum needed, and add a
+# `# nosemgrep: github-actions-pull-request-target` line immediately above
+# the trigger with a justification reviewed by the security team.
