Potential fix for https://github.com/JerwinPRO/SlideshowGallery/security/code-scanning/1
In general, the problem is fixed by adding an explicit
permissionsblock to the workflow (at the root or per-job level) that restricts theGITHUB_TOKENto the minimum needed scopes. For a simple CI workflow that just checks out the code and runs builds/tests,contents: readis sufficient.The best minimal fix here, without changing existing functionality, is to add a workflow-level
permissionsblock just below thename: Swiftline. This will apply to thebuildjob (and any future jobs that don’t override it) and set theGITHUB_TOKENto read-only on repository contents. No other permissions (likepull-requestsorissues) are required by the current steps. No imports or additional files are needed; this is a pure YAML change in.github/workflows/swift.yml.Specifically:
.github/workflows/swift.yml.name: Swiftline and theon:block.This preserves all existing behavior while constraining token permissions to the least privilege required.
