Bumps the codeql group with 3 updates: github/codeql-action/init, github/codeql-action/analyze and github/codeql-action/upload-sarif.

Updates github/codeql-action/init from 4.37.0 to 4.37.1

Release notes

Sourced from github/codeql-action/init's releases.

v4.37.1

  • Upcoming breaking change: Add a deprecation warning for customers using CodeQL version 2.20.6 and earlier. These versions of CodeQL were discontinued on 1 July 2026 alongside GitHub Enterprise Server 3.16, and will be unsupported by the next minor release of the CodeQL Action. #3956
  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.26.1. #4019

4.37.1 - 16 Jul 2026

  • Upcoming breaking change: Add a deprecation warning for customers using CodeQL version 2.20.6 and earlier. These versions of CodeQL were discontinued on 1 July 2026 alongside GitHub Enterprise Server 3.16, and will be unsupported by the next minor release of the CodeQL Action. #3956
  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.26.1. #4019

4.37.0 - 08 Jul 2026

  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.26.0. #3995
  • In addition to the existing input format, the config-file input for the codeql-action/init step will soon support a new [owner/]repo[@ref][:path] format. All components except the repository name are optional. If omitted, owner defaults to the same owner as the repository the analysis is running for, ref to main, and path to .github/codeql-action.yaml. Support for this format ships in this version of the CodeQL Action, but will only be enabled over the coming weeks. #3973

4.36.3 - 01 Jul 2026

No user facing changes.

4.36.2 - 04 Jun 2026

  • Cache CodeQL CLI version information across Actions steps. #3943
  • Reduce requests while waiting for analysis processing by using exponential backoff when polling SARIF processing status. #3937
  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.6. #3948

4.36.1 - 02 Jun 2026

No user facing changes.

4.36.0 - 22 May 2026

  • Breaking change: Bump the minimum required CodeQL bundle version to 2.19.4. #3894
  • Add support for SHA-256 Git object IDs. #3893
  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.5. #3926

4.35.5 - 15 May 2026

  • We have improved how the JavaScript bundles for the CodeQL Action are generated to avoid duplication across bundles and reduce the size of the repository by around 70%. This should have no effect on the runtime behaviour of the CodeQL Action. #3899
  • For performance and accuracy reasons, improved incremental analysis will now only be enabled on a pull request when diff-informed analysis is also enabled for that run. If diff-informed analysis is unavailable (for example, because the PR diff ranges could not be computed), the action will fall back to a full analysis. #3791
  • If multiple inputs are provided for the GitHub-internal analysis-kinds input, only code-scanning will be enabled. The analysis-kinds input is experimental, for GitHub-internal use only, and may change without notice at any time. #3892
  • Added an experimental change which, when running a Code Scanning analysis for a PR with improved incremental analysis enabled, prefers CodeQL CLI versions that have a cached overlay-base database for the configured languages. This speeds up analysis for a repository when there is not yet a cached overlay-base database for the latest CLI version. We expect to roll this change out to everyone in May. #3880

4.35.4 - 07 May 2026

  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.4. #3881

4.35.3 - 01 May 2026

Review

Overview: Dependabot bump of the codeql group — github/codeql-action/init, .../analyze, and .../upload-sarif from 4.37.0 → 4.37.1, applied consistently across codeql.yml, schedule-scan-nuget-transitive-dependencies.yml, and schedule-scan-owasp-dependency-check.yml.

Findings:

  • ✅ Actions are pinned by full commit SHA with a version comment, consistent with this repo's existing convention (good supply-chain hygiene).
  • ✅ All three usages of codeql-action are updated together and stay in sync — no mismatched versions across workflows.
  • ✅ Change is mechanical/config-only; no application code, tests, or logic affected. No functional risk.
  • Nothing else to flag — this is safe to merge as a routine dependency update.

No issues found.

🤖 Local LLM Review

Model: qwen3.6-35b-a3b-mtp@q8_k_xl

✅ Recommendation: Approve & Merge

This is a standard, low-risk automated dependency update from Dependabot. The bump from 4.37.0 to 4.37.1 introduces no breaking changes and aligns with security/maintenance best practices.


📝 Summary of Changes

  • Actions Updated: github/codeql-action/init, analyze, and upload-sarif (all v4.37.0 → v4.37.1)
  • Files Modified: 3 GitHub Actions workflow files (codeql.yml, schedule-scan-nuget-transitive-dependencies.yml, schedule-scan-owasp-dependency-check.yml)
  • Version Pinning: All actions are pinned to full commit SHAs, which is a security and reproducibility best practice.

🔍 Key Observations & Impact Analysis

Aspect Details
Release Type Minor/patch update (4.37.0 → 4.37.1). Changelog explicitly states: "No user facing changes."
Security Impact ✅ Updates the default CodeQL bundle to v2.26.1, which typically includes updated security queries, bug fixes, and improved detection accuracy.
Compatibility ⚠️ Adds a deprecation warning for users still on CodeQL CLI ≤ v2.20.6. This is forward-looking only; it will not break current workflows unless you explicitly pin an ancient CLI version via the codeql-version input. The next minor release will drop support for those versions.
Workflow Logic ✅ No changes to job structure, inputs, matrix configurations, or SARIF handling. Actions will run identically under the hood.

💡 Recommendations / Next Steps

  1. Merge as-is: Dependabot group updates like this are safe and recommended for keeping CI/CD pipelines secure and up-to-date.
  2. Monitor First Run (Optional but Recommended): After merging, verify that one CodeQL workflow completes successfully to catch any edge-case environment differences (standard practice for action bumps).
  3. Deprecation Warning Note: If your organization uses custom or legacy CodeQL CLI versions, review the deprecation notice now so you can plan an upgrade before the next minor release drops support.

🏁 Conclusion

This PR is a routine maintenance update with clear security benefits and zero breaking changes. The diff is minimal, follows best practices (SHA pinning), and requires no manual adjustments to your workflows. Ready to merge.
