Potential fix for https://github.com/codeharborhub/tutorial/security/code-scanning/1
To fix the problem, we should stop inserting
github.event.issue.bodydirectly into the shell script via GitHub expression syntax and instead pass it through an environment variable, then read that environment variable using normal shell variable expansion. This removes the opportunity for the GitHub expression engine to splice attacker-controlled text directly into the script’s source.The best minimal-change fix is:
env:section to theValidate Issue ContentandCheck for Security and Truststeps to mapISSUE_BODY: ${{ github.event.issue.body }}.run:block, replaceissue_body="${{ github.event.issue.body }}"withissue_body="$ISSUE_BODY".This preserves all existing logic (string checks on the issue body) while aligning with GitHub’s recommended safe pattern. No additional methods or external libraries are needed; only YAML changes within
.github/workflows/issue_creation_workflow.ymlin the two affected steps.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
