This PR fixes a security permissions issue in the CodeQL workflow configuration. The
Codeql-buildjob in.github/workflows/webserver.ymlwas usinggithub/codeql-action/analyze@v2without the requiredsecurity-events: writepermission at the job level.Problem
The workflow had permissions defined only at the root level (
contents: read), which is insufficient for CodeQL analysis actions that need to upload security events to GitHub's code scanning dashboard.Solution
Added job-level permissions to the
Codeql-buildjob:This ensures that the CodeQL analyze action has the necessary permissions to function correctly while following GitHub's security best practices of defining permissions at the job level rather than the workflow level.
Verification
github/codeql-action/analyzeidentified and fixedossf-scorecard.ymlalready has correct job-level permissions forgithub/codeql-action/upload-sarifFixes #21.
