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.

Pinned Dependencies

GitHub Action tags and Docker tags are mutable. This poses a security risk. GitHub's Security Hardening guide recommends pinning actions to full length commit.

Harden Runner

Harden-Runner is an open-source security agent for the GitHub-hosted runner to prevent software supply chain attacks. It prevents exfiltration of credentials, detects tampering of source code during build, and enables running jobs without sudo access.

Harden runner usage

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With Dependabot version updates, when Dependabot identifies an outdated dependency, it raises a pull request to update the manifest to the latest version of the dependency.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).

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 Dependency Review Workflow

The Dependency Review Workflow enforces dependency reviews on your pull requests. The action scans for vulnerable versions of dependencies introduced by package version changes in pull requests, and warns you about the associated security vulnerabilities. This gives you better visibility of what's changing in a pull request, and helps prevent vulnerabilities being added to your repository.

Maintain Code Quality with Pre-Commit

Pre-commit is a framework for managing and maintaining multi-language pre-commit hooks. Hooks can be any scripts, code, or binaries that run at any stage of the git workflow. Pre-commit hooks are useful for enforcing code quality, code formatting, and detecting security vulnerabilities.
