Potential fix for https://github.com/eclipse-milo/milo/security/code-scanning/12
The fix is to add a
permissionsblock specifying the least privilege necessary for this workflow. The minimal required permission for most workflows unrelated to repository modifications iscontents: read. This restricts the GITHUB_TOKEN to only be able to read repository contents, mitigating the risk of tokens being abused to manipulate code, issues, or PRs.Place the following block at the top of the workflow file, just after the
nameline and before theon:block for clarity and to apply to all jobs in the workflow (global setting). No further permissions (for issues, deployments, etc.) appear necessary from the steps shown.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
