Potential fix for https://github.com/SovereignCloudStack/docs/security/code-scanning/2
To fix this problem, you should add a
permissionsblock to the workflow to explicitly minimize the GITHUB_TOKEN permissions. Since the workflow only checks out the repository, installs Node and dependencies, and builds the site, the job does not appear to require any write permissions. The minimal permission required iscontents: read, which allows the workflow to read repository contents (needed by actions/checkout). Add the following block abovejobs:in.github/workflows/build.yml:This will ensure that GITHUB_TOKEN is restricted to a minimal, read-only scope.
