fix(ci): pin third-party actions to full commit SHAs - #76
Merged
Merged
Conversation
The account's Actions policy requires a full-length SHA ref. A tag or branch ref is refused at startup — `startup_failure`, no jobs, "this workflow graph cannot be shown" — so these workflows could not run at all. This resolves each ref to the commit it currently points at and records the ref in a trailing comment, e.g. `actions/checkout@<sha> # v4`. `dtolnay/rust-toolchain` takes its toolchain from the ref itself, so those steps also gained an explicit `with: toolchain:` input; without it, a SHA ref would silently lose the channel. No behaviour is intended to change beyond the pins.

Retain the v0.3.0 version annotation.
The PR objective requires the original version reference to remain in the trailing comment. Line 43 now contains only the NOSONAR note and the actions.lock digest. Add # v0.3.0 so the pinned SHA remains traceable to the replaced tag.

💡 Result:
<search_synthesis>
The GitHub repository hyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action is a project that provides a Node-free GitHub Action for sending notification emails from workflows [1][2]. The action uses a static Zig-built binary, and its SMTP session is formally specified in Idris2 and machine-checked [3][2]. Regarding the specific version and hash mentioned: - Version v0.3.0 is a released version of the action [3][4]. - The hash 22e7bdb322c430c1d0dac6b3bb307f4bb139d0be appears to be a commit hash associated with the repository's history, though it is not the primary pinning method recommended for the action [3]. Users are typically advised to pin actions using SHA-256 hashes (e.g., sha1-ede1191ef6ff3ac02c4f4d9efdf837ee517e11d7) to ensure security and reproducibility [3]. The action is designed to support SMTPS (port 465) and STARTTLS (port 587) [1][4]. It serves as a migration path from other email-sending actions and is used in various open-source projects [2]. Documentation for the project includes a KNOWN-DEFECTS.adoc file, which notes that v0.3.0 had issues with STARTTLS binary fetching that were subsequently addressed [5].

Reconcile the workflow pin with actions.lock. The lockfile records hyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action@v0.2.0 at sha1-ede1191ef6ff3ac02c4f4d9efdf837ee517e11d7, but this workflow runs a different revision. The intended workflow version is v0.3.0, so regenerate actions.lock with gh actions-lock for the v0.3.0 pin. Do not restore the older v0.2.0 SHA.
The mismatch violates the generated lockfile contract. Lock enforcement can reject the workflow before its steps run.

The account's Actions policy requires a full-length SHA ref. A tag or branch ref is refused at

startup_failure, no jobs, "this workflow graph cannot be shown" — so these workflowscould not run at all. This resolves each ref to the commit it currently points at and records the

actions/checkout@<sha> # v4.dtolnay/rust-toolchaintakes its toolchain from the ref itself, so those steps also gained anexplicit
with: toolchain:input; without it, a SHA ref would silently lose the channel.No behaviour is intended to change beyond the pins.
