Potential fix for https://github.com/marcolivierarsenault/coffeeanddata/security/code-scanning/5
To resolve this, we should add an explicit
permissions:block. This can be placed either at the root (workflow) level (to apply to all jobs), or at the individual job level if different jobs require different permissions.The safest general minimal fix is to add
permissions: contents: readat the top level, making all jobs least-privilege unless they need more (which does not seem to be the case from the provided code). This does not impact existing behavior since none of the steps shown require write access to the repo via the GitHub API.Specifics:
