Code scanning / CodeQL

Workflow does not contain permissions Medium

Actions job or workflow does not limit the permissions of the GITHUB_TOKEN. Consider setting an explicit permissions block, using the following as a minimal starting point: {}

To fix the problem, add an explicit permissions: block that grants only the minimal required permissions for this workflow. Because this job only delegates to a reusable workflow via uses:, the caller should still define its own permissions; the called workflow cannot gain more permissions than the caller provides. The safest general default when you don’t know the exact needs is contents: read, which matches GitHub’s recommended minimal baseline and satisfies the CodeQL rule by explicitly constraining the GITHUB_TOKEN.

The best minimal change here is to add a permissions: section at the top level of the workflow (just under name: and before on:). This will apply to all jobs (including approve, which doesn’t define its own permissions:), without changing how the job is structured or how it calls the reusable workflow. No imports or additional methods are needed—this is purely a YAML configuration change in .github/workflows/renovate-approve.yml around lines 1–4.
