- Mutable tags let an upstream maintainer change what runs here after the fact, and pinning is a prerequisite for turning on the organization SHA pinning policy without taking CI down.
PR SummaryLow Risk Overview Coverage includes checkout, mise, setup-dotnet, Docker buildx/QEMU/login/build-push, artifact upload/download, the license-year action, and This locks CI to immutable action code and aligns with org policies that require SHA pinning without breaking workflows that still referenced tags.

WalkthroughSeven GitHub Actions workflows now reference immutable commit SHAs instead of mutable tags or branches. Existing workflow inputs, steps, and version comments remain unchanged. ChangesWorkflow action pinning
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to This PR replaces mutable CI action tags with immutable commit pins while preserving workflow behavior and permissions. It is mergeable with explicit owner awareness that each selected commit should be independently verified against its intended release; existing pull-request credential and token-authority boundaries are unchanged rather than worsened by this change.

using actions/checkout, to set persist-credentials to false at the referenced
checkout locations. Apply this unless any of those jobs explicitly require
authenticated Git operations.

Sensitive Data Exposure (CWE-522): Insufficiently Protected Credentials
Disable checkout credential persistence in pull-request jobs that execute repository-controlled commands. Set persist-credentials: false on the checkout steps in .github/workflows/common.yml at lines 47, 95, 119, and 221, and in .github/workflows/build-reusable.yml, unless a later step requires authenticated Git operations.

Security Misconfiguration (CWE-732): Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource
Declare the minimum token permissions for automation that pushes branches, creates pull requests, and applies labels. Add job-level permissions for contents: write, issues: write, and pull-requests: write in both affected workflows, or narrower permissions if the actions support them.
