The best fix is to explicitly specify the minimal permissions needed for this workflow. Since the shown steps only check out code and perform a CMake build (without uploading artifacts, commenting on issues, or manipulating PRs), only
contents: readpermission is necessary. You should add apermissionsblock at the root level of the workflow file (betweenname:andon:) to apply these permissions to all jobs unless overridden. This addition should not affect existing functionality but will reduce the risk of over-privileged tokens in workflow jobs.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
