## Release Notes: Security Tooling & Pipeline Resilience
### Overview
This update stabilizes our security infrastructure by unifying our vulnerability scanning tools and resolving key pipeline bottlenecks. We've successfully migrated to TruffleHog for secret detection and implemented graceful degradation for GitHub Advanced Security to ensure smoother, more resilient CI runs.
### 🛡️ Vulnerability & Secret Scanning
* **Uniform Security Scans:** Implemented standardized CI workflows for Static Application Security Testing (SAST), Software Composition Analysis (SCA), Trivy, and Dependabot.
* **TruffleHog Migration:** Replaced Gitleaks with TruffleHog for deeper secret scanning capabilities.
* **TruffleHog Stabilization:** Fixed CI paths and resolved a critical `base/head` identical mismatch error within `security.yml` to ensure accurate pull request diffing.
### ⚙️ CI/CD & CodeQL Hardening
* **CodeQL Permissions:** Added the required `actions:read` permissions for successful `codeql upload-sarif` executions.
* **Pipeline Error Resolution:** Resolved recurring CodeQL matrix errors, fixed pathing issues, and cleared up lingering Codespell linting warnings.
* **Pipeline Resilience:** * Configured workflows to gracefully degrade GitHub Advanced Security uploads when the feature is disabled on the repository.
* Injected `continue-on-error` limits for degradation steps to prevent non-critical scan failures from blocking deployments.
### 🛠️ Formatting Standards
* **EOF Enforcement:** Strictly enforced End of File (EOF) standards across the codebase to maintain formatting consistency.
