🔴 HIGH RISK

The combination of pull_request_target and checking out the PR head is a security risk. It allows potentially untrusted code to run with the permissions of the base repository (privileged GITHUB_TOKEN). Since this is for auto-merging, consider using GitHub's native auto-merge feature which can be triggered via a standard pull_request event and doesn't require checking out the PR code manually.

Try running the following prompt in your IDE agent:

Refactor the auto-merge workflow to use the native GitHub CLI gh pr merge --auto command within a standard pull_request trigger to eliminate the security risks associated with pull_request_target and head checkout.

🟡 MEDIUM RISK

This action is pinned to an old version (v2.0.0) that uses the deprecated Node 12 runtime. Upgrade to v7 to ensure compatibility with modern GitHub runners. Additionally, avoid using ${{ ... }} interpolation inside the script block as it creates a risk of script injection; use environment variables and process.env instead.

Try running the following prompt in your coding agent:

Refactor the actions/github-script steps in .github/workflows/comment_issue.yml to use environment variables for accessing GitHub context data instead of using inline interpolation.
