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 4.37.9 to 4.38.0

Release notes

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

v4.38.0

  • On GitHub-hosted runners, the CodeQL Action now deletes unused CodeQL bundles from the toolcache before downloading a different bundle, which frees up disk space for the analysis. We expect to roll this change out to everyone in September. #4124
  • The CodeQL Action now supports CodeQL releases that are compatible with Linux Arm64 and downloads the native linux-arm64 CodeQL bundle when available. #4072
  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.27.0. #4129
Changelog

4.38.0 - 09 Sept 2026

  • On GitHub-hosted runners, the CodeQL Action now deletes unused CodeQL bundles from the toolcache before downloading a different bundle, which frees up disk space for the analysis. We expect to roll this change out to everyone in September. #4124
  • The CodeQL Action now supports CodeQL releases that are compatible with Linux Arm64 and downloads the native linux-arm64 CodeQL bundle when available. #4072
  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.27.0. #4129

4.37.9 - 26 Aug 2026

  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.26.4. #4106

4.37.8 - 21 Aug 2026

No user facing changes.

4.37.7 - 13 Aug 2026

  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.26.3. #4085

4.37.6 - 04 Aug 2026

  • Changed the default filepath for the new remote file address format that was introduced in CodeQL Action 4.37.0 / 3.37.0 to .github/codeql-config.yml to align it with the suggested path that is used elsewhere. #4070

4.37.5 - 03 Aug 2026

  • Fixed a bug where a network error while streaming the download of the CodeQL bundle could terminate the init Action instead of falling back to downloading the bundle before extracting it. #4061

4.37.4 - 29 Jul 2026

  • This version of the CodeQL Action adds support for the tools input for the codeql-action/init step to be specified using a github-codeql-tools repository property. This feature will gradually be rolled out following the release of this version. Once rolled out, this allows for the CodeQL CLI version that is used in GitHub-managed workflows, such as Default Setup, to be set to a custom value. For example, customers who run into issues with rate limits when a new CodeQL CLI version is released can set the value to toolcache to always use the CodeQL CLI version that is available in the runner toolcache. For Advanced Setup workflows, the value provided for tools in the workflow definition always takes precedence unless the value of the repository property starts with !. #4037
  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.26.2. #4051

4.37.3 - 22 Jul 2026

No user facing changes.

4.37.2 - 21 Jul 2026

  • The new address format for the config-file input that was introduced in CodeQL Action 4.37.0 is now enabled by default. In addition to the format described there, the remote= prefix can now be used to explicitly indicate that the input refers to a remote file. All previous input formats continue to be accepted as well. #4023
  • The CodeQL Action can now make use of configured private registries in Default Setup to retrieve CodeQL configuration files from remote repositories that require authentication. This will allow customers to store their CodeQL configuration in a single repository that can then be referenced by Default Setup workflows in other repositories. We expect to roll this and other, related changes out to everyone in July. #4007

4.37.1 - 16 Jul 2026

Review: Bump the codeql group 4.37.9 → 4.38.0

Reviewed as a dependency update: what the new version changes and how it lands in this repo's configuration, rather than the mechanics of the SHA swap.

Verdict: safe to merge, no changes required.

Completeness in this repo

All three pinned usages are updated to b96794f / # 4.38.0, and nothing stale is left behind — grepping the tree for cdf488f…/4.37.9 returns nothing. The codeql Dependabot group pattern github/codeql-action/* covers exactly these three sub-actions, so the group stayed complete:

  • .github/workflows/reusable-scan-codeql.yml (init + analyze)
  • .github/workflows/reusable-scan-nuget-transitive-dependencies.yml (upload-sarif)
  • .github/workflows/reusable-scan-owasp-dependency-check.yml (upload-sarif)

Effect of what actually changed upstream

v4.38.0 has three changelog entries; none require config changes here:

  1. Toolcache cleanup of unused CodeQL bundles on GitHub-hosted runners (#4124) — a small win for the csharp matrix leg, which runs build-mode: autobuild on ubuntu-latest and needs the disk for the .NET build. Nothing to opt into.
  2. Native linux-arm64 bundle download (#4072) — no effect today; every scan job runs runs-on: ubuntu-latest (x64).
  3. Default bundle → CodeQL 2.27.0 (release notes) — the query/model work in 2.27.0 is a new Rust command-line-injection query, Micronaut modeling for Java/Kotlin, PostgreSQL libpq sinks for C/C++, and expanded C# ASP.NET Core MVC controller/action discovery plus MVC/OData taint tracking. Of the three languages analyzed here (actions, csharp, javascript-typescript), the C# work is the only candidate — and it does not apply: src/Api is an Azure Functions isolated worker (Microsoft.Azure.Functions.Worker.Extensions.Http, ConfigureFunctionsWorkerDefaults) with no MVC controllers and no …Extensions.Http.AspNetCore integration. So queries: security-extended results should be materially unchanged for this repo.

Config still valid after the bump

Nothing in reusable-scan-codeql.yml is touched or deprecated by 4.38.0: CODEQL_ACTION_FILE_COVERAGE_ON_PRS: true (still the documented advanced-setup opt-in), trap-caching: false, queries: security-extended, build-mode, and the category: values on analyze and on both upload-sarif steps. The repo passes no config-file, so the 4.37.6 change of the remote-config default path to .github/codeql-config.yml is a non-issue.

Optional, not blocking

  • Now that 2.27.0 ships a native linux-arm64 bundle and init picks it up automatically, the actions and javascript-typescript matrix legs could run on an arm64 runner if runner speed ever matters. I would keep the csharp leg on x64 — autobuild plus the Azure Functions toolchain is the one spot where arm64 could behave differently — which means a per-entry runs-on in the matrix, so it is only worth doing with a concrete reason.
  • Bundle upgrades can surface new alerts on the next scan. The CodeQL job only uploads to code scanning (unlike the OWASP/NuGet scans, which gate PRs via fail-on-vulnerable: true), so anything new shows up in the Security tab, and schedule-scan-codeql.yml refreshes the main baseline daily.
