Potential fix for https://github.com/psake/PowerShellBuild/security/code-scanning/1
In general, the fix is to explicitly define a
permissions:block for the workflow or individual jobs, granting only the scopes actually needed. For most build/publish workflows that only need to read the repository contents,contents: readis an appropriate minimal default. If later steps need more permissions (e.g., to create releases or write issues), those can be added explicitly.For this specific file, the simplest and safest fix without altering functionality is to add a workflow-level
permissions:block withcontents: read. This will apply to thepublishjob because it currently has nopermissionsof its own. Concretely, in.github/workflows/publish.yaml, insert:between the
on:block and thejobs:block. No additional imports or dependencies are needed, and no other lines in the workflow need to change.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
