Potential fix for https://github.com/RestartB/titanium/security/code-scanning/2
In general, the fix is to explicitly declare restricted
GITHUB_TOKENpermissions for the workflow (or per-job) instead of relying on inherited defaults. For a Ruff linting workflow that only reads code and dependencies,contents: readis sufficient and aligns with CodeQL’s suggested minimal starting point.The best way to fix this specific file without changing existing functionality is to add a
permissionsblock at the top workflow level, right after thename: Ruffline (beforeon:). This will apply to all jobs in the workflow (currently onlycheck) and set the token to read-only for repository contents. No other permissions appear necessary, since the job only checks out code, sets up Python, installs tools/dependencies, and runs Ruff. No extra imports or dependencies are needed; this is a pure YAML configuration change in.github/workflows/ruff.yml.Concretely:
Edit
.github/workflows/ruff.yml.Insert:
between line 1 (
name: Ruff) and line 3 (on:), shifting the subsequent lines down.Leave the rest of the workflow unchanged.
