Fixes #2219
OpenSSF Scorecard reports a Token-Permissions finding (severity: high, score 0) against several GitHub Actions workflows: no top-level
permissionsblock is defined, so theGITHUB_TOKENin these workflows runs with the repository/organization default scopes rather than the least privilege each workflow actually needs.Impact
Without an explicit least-privilege
permissionsdeclaration, a compromised action, dependency, or injected step in these workflows would inherit broad write access to the repository (contents, pull requests, issues, packages, etc.). This widens the blast radius of any supply-chain or workflow compromise and keeps the repository's Scorecard security posture below its potential.Affected workflows
