Release notes

Sourced from github/codeql-action/upload-sarif's releases.

v4.37.6

  • Changed the default filepath for the new remote file address format that was introduced in CodeQL Action 4.37.0 / 3.37.0 to .github/codeql-config.yml to align it with the suggested path that is used elsewhere. #4070
Changelog

Sourced from github/codeql-action/upload-sarif's changelog.

4.37.6 - 04 Aug 2026

  • Changed the default filepath for the new remote file address format that was introduced in CodeQL Action 4.37.0 / 3.37.0 to .github/codeql-config.yml to align it with the suggested path that is used elsewhere. #4070

4.37.5 - 03 Aug 2026

  • Fixed a bug where a network error while streaming the download of the CodeQL bundle could terminate the init Action instead of falling back to downloading the bundle before extracting it. #4061

4.37.4 - 29 Jul 2026

  • This version of the CodeQL Action adds support for the tools input for the codeql-action/init step to be specified using a github-codeql-tools repository property. This feature will gradually be rolled out following the release of this version. Once rolled out, this allows for the CodeQL CLI version that is used in GitHub-managed workflows, such as Default Setup, to be set to a custom value. For example, customers who run into issues with rate limits when a new CodeQL CLI version is released can set the value to toolcache to always use the CodeQL CLI version that is available in the runner toolcache. For Advanced Setup workflows, the value provided for tools in the workflow definition always takes precedence unless the value of the repository property starts with !. #4037
  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.26.2. #4051

4.37.3 - 22 Jul 2026

No user facing changes.

4.37.2 - 21 Jul 2026

  • The new address format for the config-file input that was introduced in CodeQL Action 4.37.0 is now enabled by default. In addition to the format described there, the remote= prefix can now be used to explicitly indicate that the input refers to a remote file. All previous input formats continue to be accepted as well. #4023
  • The CodeQL Action can now make use of configured private registries in Default Setup to retrieve CodeQL configuration files from remote repositories that require authentication. This will allow customers to store their CodeQL configuration in a single repository that can then be referenced by Default Setup workflows in other repositories. We expect to roll this and other, related changes out to everyone in July. #4007

4.37.1 - 16 Jul 2026

  • Upcoming breaking change: Add a deprecation warning for customers using CodeQL version 2.20.6 and earlier. These versions of CodeQL were discontinued on 1 July 2026 alongside GitHub Enterprise Server 3.16, and will be unsupported by the next minor release of the CodeQL Action. #3956
  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.26.1. #4019

4.37.0 - 08 Jul 2026

  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.26.0. #3995
  • In addition to the existing input format, the config-file input for the codeql-action/init step will soon support a new [owner/]repo[@ref][:path] format. All components except the repository name are optional. If omitted, owner defaults to the same owner as the repository the analysis is running for, ref to main, and path to .github/codeql-action.yaml. Support for this format ships in this version of the CodeQL Action, but will only be enabled over the coming weeks. #3973

4.36.3 - 01 Jul 2026

No user facing changes.

4.36.2 - 04 Jun 2026

  • Cache CodeQL CLI version information across Actions steps. #3943
  • Reduce requests while waiting for analysis processing by using exponential backoff when polling SARIF processing status. #3937
  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.6. #3948

…rnance) (#164)

**Third occurrence of DEBT I-1 today.** Dependabot #163 bumped four
workflows' action SHAs without regenerating `actions.lock`, so 4 of 15
went stale — CodeQL back to 0-second `startup_failure`, Governance red
on its own `gh actions-lock --verify-local` step.

Regenerated with the full four-step recipe (regenerate → restore inline
SHA pins → `relock-sha-keys.sh` → restore reusable-caller entries).
`--verify-local`: all 15 covered. `--no-fix`: valid, zero errors.

### This is now demonstrably unsustainable by hand

Three times in one day (#155/#157, then #163). Every dependabot action
bump re-breaks the board, and the fix is not a single command — step 4
has no upstream equivalent, because `gh actions-lock` drops
reusable-workflow callers. **I-1 needs automating**, not repeating.

### Incidental finding

`actions/checkout@3d3c42e` now records a bare SHA as its `ref:` because
the same commit carries **conflicting tag comments** in the tree — `#
v5` in `cflite_batch.yml`/`cflite_pr.yml` versus `# v7.0.1` in
`codeql.yml` — so the generator cannot narrow it. Pre-existing
mislabelling; enforcement checks the digest rather than the ref, so this
is cosmetic, but one of those comments is wrong and should be corrected.

### Separately: Secret Scanner is red for an unrelated *upstream* reason

Not fixed here — see the standards-side issue. `gitleaks` fails with:

```
FTL failed to load extended config, err: open config/gitleaks/estate-baseline.toml: no such file
```

The secret-scanner reusable sparse-checks-out standards' **own**
`.gitleaks.toml` and copies it into consumers as the estate baseline —
but that file `[extend]`s `config/gitleaks/estate-baseline.toml`, a
CWD-relative path that exists only inside standards. It should copy the
baseline file itself. This breaks every consumer without its own
`.gitleaks.toml`.
