[dependabot]

Bumps github/codeql-action/init from 3.35.5 to 4.36.2.

Release notes

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

v4.36.2

• 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

v4.36.1

No user facing changes.

v4.36.0

• 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

v4.35.5

• 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

v4.35.4

• Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.4. #3881

v4.35.3

• Upcoming breaking change: Add a deprecation warning for customers using CodeQL version 2.19.3 and earlier. These versions of CodeQL were discontinued on 9 April 2026 alongside GitHub Enterprise Server 3.15, and will be unsupported by the next minor release of the CodeQL Action. #3837
• Configurations for private registries that use Cloudsmith or GCP OIDC are now accepted. #3850
• Best-effort connection tests for private registries now use GET requests instead of HEAD for better compatibility with various registry implementations. For NuGet feeds, the test is now always performed against the service index. #3853
• Fixed a bug where two diagnostics produced within the same millisecond could overwrite each other on disk, causing one of them to be lost. #3852
• Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.3. #3865

v4.35.2

• The undocumented TRAP cache cleanup feature that could be enabled using the CODEQL_ACTION_CLEANUP_TRAP_CACHES environment variable is deprecated and will be removed in May 2026. If you are affected by this, we recommend disabling TRAP caching by passing the trap-caching: false input to the init Action. #3795
• The Git version 2.36.0 requirement for improved incremental analysis now only applies to repositories that contain submodules. #3789
• Python analysis on GHES no longer extracts the standard library, relying instead on models of the standard library. This should result in significantly faster extraction and analysis times, while the effect on alerts should be minimal. #3794
• Fixed a bug in the validation of OIDC configurations for private registries that was added in CodeQL Action 4.33.0 / 3.33.0. #3807
• Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.2. #3823

v4.35.1

• Fix incorrect minimum required Git version for improved incremental analysis: it should have been 2.36.0, not 2.11.0. #3781

v4.35.0

• Reduced the minimum Git version required for improved incremental analysis from 2.38.0 to 2.11.0. #3767
• Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.1. #3773

v4.34.1

• Downgrade default CodeQL bundle version to 2.24.3 due to issues with a small percentage of Actions and JavaScript analyses. #3762

v4.34.0

• Added an experimental change which disables TRAP caching when improved incremental analysis is enabled, since improved incremental analysis supersedes TRAP caching. This will improve performance and reduce Actions cache usage. We expect to roll this change out to everyone in March. #3569
• We are rolling out improved incremental analysis to C/C++ analyses that use build mode none. We expect this rollout to be complete by the end of April 2026. #3584
• Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.0. #3585

Update all CodeQL steps to v4 together

In this workflow, init now runs the v4.36.2 SHA while the analyze step below still uses the v3.35.5 SHA. The CodeQL Action changelog says mixing different CodeQL Action versions in one workflow is unsupported, and v3.30.4+ throws an error when a later step loads configuration generated by a different init version, so the push/PR/scheduled CodeQL job will reach analyze with a mismatched init config and fail instead of uploading results. Please bump github/codeql-action/analyze to the matching v4 SHA in the same change.

Automated Dependabot review — ❌ STOP at CI (fail-fast)

Change: github/codeql-action/init 458d36d (v3.35.5) → 8aad20d (v4.36.2) in .github/workflows/codeql.yml.

Step 1 — Code review

• Consistency: The action reference is bumped to the v4.36.2 SHA, but the inline pin comment still reads # v3 (stale — should read # v4).
• Correctness (blocking): This PR bumps only codeql-action/init to v4 while leaving codeql-action/analyze at v3 in the same workflow. The CodeQL Action requires init and analyze to be the same major version; a split v4-init / v3-analyze configuration is unsupported.

Step 2/3 — Regression & CI

CI is failing. The Analyze Python job (run 28523766473) ends with:

CodeQL job status was configuration error.
Analysis upload status is failed.
##[warning] ... github/codeql-action/analyze@458d36d... (v3) are being forced to run on Node.js 24

The v3 analyze step is mismatched against the v4 init, producing a CodeQL configuration error. This is a hard, reproducible failure (not transient).

Decision

Per the fail-fast policy, processing stops here — not merged.

Root cause & recommendation: Dependabot split the github/codeql-action monorepo bump into two PRs — this one (init) and #261 (analyze) — but the two must move to v4 together. Neither can go green alone. Suggested resolution: bump init and analyze to v4.36.2 in a single commit (and fix the # v3 → # v4 comments), then close the redundant PR; or ·@·d·ependabot r·ecreate after grouping the codeql-action updates. Leaving this to the maintainer since it requires combining/altering the Dependabot branches.

Automated Dependabot review — github/codeql-action/init 3.35.5 → 4.36.2

Step 1: Code review

• Consistency / Effectiveness ✅ — The diff bumps github/codeql-action/init from 458d36d (v3.35.5) to 8aad20d (v4.36.2) in .github/workflows/codeql.yml, matching the description. SHA verified against the upstream v4.36.2 tag.
• Security ✅ — SHA-pinned. The v3→v4 major bump's only breaking change is raising the minimum CodeQL bundle to 2.19.4; this repo uses the default bundle (2.25.6), so it is unaffected.
• Minor nit — the trailing comment is still # v3 on a v4 SHA (a Dependabot artifact of pinning to a major-tag comment). Cosmetic only.

Step 2 & 3: Regression + CI — ❌ FAILED (stopping here)

The required Analyze Python check fails with a configuration error:

##[error]Loaded a configuration file for version '4.36.2', but running version '3.35.5'
##[error]analyze post-action step failed: Loaded a configuration file for version '4.36.2', but running version '3.35.5'
CodeQL job status was configuration error.

Root cause: github/codeql-action/* requires init and analyze to run at the same version. This PR bumps only init → v4.36.2, while analyze in the same codeql.yml stays at v3.35.5 (bumped separately in #261). The mismatch makes CodeQL fail hard, so this PR cannot pass CI on its own. #261 fails symmetrically (init v3 / analyze v4).

Per the fail-fast policy I am stopping and not merging.

Recommended fix (a maintainer decision — the two PRs are mutually blocking and I won't unilaterally combine Dependabot PRs): land the init and analyze bumps together so both reach v4.36.2 in one commit — e.g. group them via a Dependabot group for github/codeql-action, or manually apply both hunks in a single PR / merge the pair back-to-back. Neither #259 nor #261 will go green in isolation.

Automated Dependabot review — ❌ blocked at CI (fail-fast)

Step 1 — Code review

• Change: github/codeql-action/init pinned SHA 458d36d → 8aad20d. The new SHA resolves to codeql-action v4.36.2 (confirmed by the job env CODEQL_ACTION_VERSION: 4.36.2), matching the PR title.
• Consistency nit: the inline version comment was left as # v3 but the SHA is now v4.36.2 — it should read # v4. Dependabot did not refresh the comment on this major bump.

Step 2/3 — Regression / CI: ❌ FAILED. The Analyze Python (CodeQL) check errors out with a configuration error:

##[error]Loaded a configuration file for version '4.36.2', but running version '3.35.5'
CodeQL job status was configuration error.

Root cause: Dependabot split the codeql-action major bump into two separate PRs — this one (init → v4.36.2) and #261 (analyze → v4.36.2). CodeQL requires init and analyze to run the same version. On this branch init is v4.36.2 while analyze is still v3.35.5, so the run aborts. #261 has the mirror-image failure (v3 init + v4 analyze).

Decision: Per fail-fast, this PR is not merged. Neither #259 nor #261 can pass CI in isolation, and merging either alone would break CodeQL on main.

Suggested resolution (needs a maintainer decision): land both bumps atomically — e.g. bump both init and analyze to 8aad20d (v4.36.2) in a single commit/PR, then close the two split PRs. Longer-term, a Dependabot group for github/codeql-action/* prevents this split from recurring. Also fix the # v3 → # v4 comment while at it.
