🤖 Codex review: Security review is clear for River's current hosted configuration; this PR is superseded and should remain unmerged.

Upgrade

  • actions/cache: v5 → v6
  • Reviewed River head: 55443f3de1ba51e5a432e6750f48048836c593a5
  • Target action tag resolves to canonical upstream commit 55cc8345863c7cc4c66a329aec7e433d2d1c52a9.

Security review

  • Action TypeScript and inputs/outputs are unchanged versus the current v5 ref; Node 24 remains the runtime. Reviewed the ESM/toolkit migration, graph churn, cache policy handling and generated restore/save bundles. The embedded 38,407-byte CRC64 WASM matches the verified Azure storage npm artifact byte-for-byte and has no direct networking or filesystem-open imports.
  • Independently verified 33 relevant published npm tarballs across the Actions group against registry/upstream-lock SHA512 integrity. No same-version integrity rewrites or non-registry sources were found. Toolkit provenance subject digests match the inspected artifacts; signature/transparency chains were not independently verified. Target release commits have GitHub-valid signatures.
  • No action-specific public advisory found. This does not establish that bundled dependencies are advisory-free.

Compatibility verification

  • Master 81c96bfe8167ab90a5009dad6098195b9857cb62 already contains every requested reference update through #1459, including additional workflows added since this stale PR. No remaining upgrade from this PR needs merging.
  • No action entrypoint was executed locally. Hosted checkout/cache/toolchain semantics require GitHub runners; stale failing checks, where present, are not treated as a passing gate. This is a comment-only supersession decision.

Residual risk

  • Bundled brace-expansion advisories are bypassed by the action glob path's nobrace: true; River supplies trusted fixed Cargo paths. Undici advisories affect APIs not used by these action paths. Large generated bundles and WASM were statically inspected, not rebuilt or exhaustively audited. Major tags and the target release remain mutable.

Superseded by #1459: master already contains this exact Actions upgrade. Dependabot cannot rebase this older PR because its configuration entry changed, so closing it as redundant. The dependency security review is recorded above.

OK, I won't notify you again about this release, but will get in touch when a new version is available. If you'd rather skip all updates until the next major or minor version, let me know by commenting @dependabot ignore this major version or @dependabot ignore this minor version. You can also ignore all major, minor, or patch releases for a dependency by adding an ignore condition with the desired update_types to your config file.

If you change your mind, just re-open this PR and I'll resolve any conflicts on it.
