Caution

Review the following alerts detected in dependencies.

According to your organization's Security Policy, you must resolve all "Block" alerts before proceeding. Learn more about Socket for GitHub.

Action Severity Alert  (click "▶" to expand/collapse)
Block High
Potentially malicious package (AI signal): github actions/checkout is 60.0% likely malicious

Notes: The code intentionally inserts a directory containing a fake git executable into the GitHub Actions runner PATH via $GITHUB_PATH. This is a CI poisoning/supply-chain manipulation technique that causes subsequent 'git' invocations to run the provided wrapper instead of the real git binary. Even though the visible payload only echoes a string, the mechanism is dangerous and can be used to alter workflow behavior, hide malicious activity, or escalate to credential theft and further exploitation. Treat this as malicious/hostile to CI integrity: remove the step, audit the workflow history and any subsequent steps/artifacts, and rotate any secrets used during runs where this executed.

Confidence: 0.60

Severity: 0.90

ℹ Read more on: This package | This alert | What is AI-detected potential malware?

Next steps: Take a moment to review the security alert above. Review the linked package source code to understand the potential risk. Ensure the package is not malicious before proceeding. If you're unsure how to proceed, reach out to your security team or ask the Socket team for help at support@socket.dev.

Suggestion: Given the AI system's identification of this package as malware, extreme caution is advised. It is recommended to avoid downloading or installing this package until the threat is confirmed or flagged as a false positive.

Mark the package as acceptable risk. To ignore this alert only in this pull request, reply with the comment @SocketSecurity-Staging ignore github/actions/checkout@de0fac2e4500dabe0009e67214ff5f5447ce83dd. You can also ignore all packages with @SocketSecurity-Staging ignore-all. To ignore an alert for all future pull requests, use Socket's Dashboard to change the triage state of this alert.

Block High
Potentially malicious package (AI signal): github actions/checkout is 60.0% likely malicious

Notes: The script injects a fake 'git' into the GitHub Actions PATH, causing all subsequent 'git' invocations in the workflow to execute the controlled script. This is a high-risk supply-chain action: it can silently and broadly subvert CI behavior. Treat as malicious or at minimum as a critical misconfiguration that must be removed or strictly audited and constrained. If encountered in a repository or third-party action, do not run workflows that include this step until purpose and safety are verified.

Confidence: 0.60
