Security Fixes
Least Privileged GitHub Actions Token Permissions
The GITHUB_TOKEN is an automatically generated secret to make authenticated calls to the GitHub API. GitHub recommends setting minimum token permissions for the GITHUB_TOKEN.
Keeping your actions up to date with Dependabot
With Dependabot version updates, when Dependabot identifies an outdated dependency, it raises a pull request to update the manifest to the latest version of the dependency. This is recommended by GitHub as well as The Open Source Security Foundation (OpenSSF).
Detect Vulnerabilities with SAST Workflow
Static Code Analysis (also known as Source Code Analysis) is usually performed as part of a Code Review (also known as clear-box testing) and is carried out at the Implementation phase of a Security Development Lifecycle (SDL). Static Code Analysis commonly refers to the running of Static Code Analysis tools that attempt to highlight possible vulnerabilities within ‘static’ (non-running) source code by using techniques such as Taint Analysis and Data Flow Analysis.
Secure Dockerfiles
Pin image tags to digests in Dockerfiles. With the Docker v2 API release, it became possible to use digests in place of tags when pulling images or to use them in FROM lines in Dockerfiles.
Add OpenSSF Scorecard Workflow
OpenSSF Scorecard is an automated tool that assesses a number of important heuristics ("checks") associated with software security and assigns each check a score of 0-10. You can use these scores to understand specific areas to improve in order to strengthen the security posture of your project.
Scorecard workflow also allows maintainers to display a Scorecard badge on their repository to show off their hard work.
