Potential fix for https://github.com/rossaddison/data-cycle/security/code-scanning/10
In general, the fix is to explicitly declare a
permissionsblock for the workflow or for thephpunitjob, granting only the least privileges required. For this workflow, the steps perform source checkout, dependency installation, tests, and uploading coverage to Codecov. These actions only require read access to the repository contents; they do not push commits, modify issues, or update pull requests. Therefore, the best fix is to setpermissions: contents: readat the workflow level, right after thename: sqliteline. This will apply to all jobs that do not override permissions and satisfies the CodeQL recommendation.Concretely, in
.github/workflows/sqlite.yml, insert:between the existing
name: sqliteline and thejobs:block. No additional imports or external dependencies are needed, and existing job steps remain unchanged. This will ensure theGITHUB_TOKENis restricted to read-only access to repository contents for this workflow.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
