Potential fix for https://github.com/lolo101/MsgViewer/security/code-scanning/4
In general, the fix is to explicitly declare a minimal
permissionsblock for the workflow or for the specific job so that theGITHUB_TOKENis limited to only what this workflow needs. Since this workflow appears to only check out code and run Qodana (a static analysis tool) without modifying the repository,contents: readis a suitable minimal set of permissions.The best fix without changing functionality is to add a top-level
permissions:block, just below thename:line and aboveon:in.github/workflows/code_quality.yml. This will apply to all jobs in the workflow (currently justqodana) and ensure that theGITHUB_TOKENonly has read access to repository contents. No imports or other definitions are needed, since this is purely a YAML configuration change for GitHub Actions.Specifically, in
.github/workflows/code_quality.yml, insert:between line 1 (
name: Qodana) and line 2 (on:). No other changes are required.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
