To fix the issue, you should add a permissions section restricting the privileges of the workflow's GITHUB_TOKEN. The best way is to set permissions at the workflow root so all jobs inherit the least privileges, unless a job requires greater permissions (which you can then override). Based on the workflow steps shown, the only likely requirement is read-only access to contents (pulling code, uploading artifacts, etc. does not require write permissions to repository content). Specifically, add the following block after the workflow name and before on::

permissions:
  contents: read

No additional methods, libraries, or other changes are required.

To fix this problem, add an explicit permissions: block for the affected job (or at workflow root if desired). Since none of the build or upload steps require writing to repository contents or managing issues or pull requests, the minimal recommendable setting is contents: read. This ensures the GITHUB_TOKEN used in the workflow does not have unnecessary privileges.
You should add the following block to the verify-reproducibility-windows job definition (starting at line 107):

permissions:
  contents: read

You could optionally add further restrictions at the workflow root, but per the CodeQL complaint (which highlights the job at line 107), it's most direct to add it for that job. No further code, imports, or dependencies are needed.

The best way to fix the problem is to add a permissions block to the workflow's root (at the top level, just after the workflow's name but before on:), which sets minimal permissions required for all jobs. Since none of the jobs as written require write access to the repository (they only need to build and upload artifacts), the safest minimal permissions block is contents: read, which will restrict the GITHUB_TOKEN to read-only access to repository contents. If any jobs require additional permissions (such as commenting on a PR), you would add those explicitly to those jobs, but based on the code shown, contents: read is appropriate.

Insert the following block into .github/workflows/reproducible-builds.yml after the name: key and before on:. No new imports or external dependencies are required.

To remediate the issue, we should add an explicit permissions block to the flagged job, verify-hash-documentation-linux, within .github/workflows/reproducible-builds.yml. The minimal starting point is contents: read, as per recommended best practice. This ensures that the GITHUB_TOKEN used by this job will only have read access to repository contents, rather than potentially inappropriate write access. The edit should add the following lines immediately below line 275 (the job declaration):

permissions:
  contents: read

No dependencies or further code changes are needed. If other jobs in the workflow require similar restrictions, those should also be reviewed, but for now, we only update the flagged job.

The best way to fix this issue is to explicitly specify a permissions: block that grants only the minimum necessary privileges for the affected job(s) or for the entire workflow if possible. Since the jobs in question appear to only need readonly access to repository contents—i.e., to clone the code—they should have contents: read. You can set this at the workflow root if all jobs share these needs, or on specific jobs as needed. Here, since the CodeQL finding is specifically about verify-hash-documentation-macos, it's minimally sufficient to add it on line 341, but to promote consistency and least privilege across all jobs in this workflow, prefer setting at the workflow level (e.g., after the name field and before on:).

To implement, add the following at the top of .github/workflows/reproducible-builds.yml (after the name: and before on:):

permissions:
  contents: read

No additional methods, imports, or definitions are needed; this is a declarative YAML configuration change.

The best way to fix this issue is to add an explicit permissions block to the workflow, restricting the automatically generated GITHUB_TOKEN's permissions to the minimum required. The CodeQL message provides an empty object (permissions: {}) as a starting point, which is equivalent in YAML to permissions: {} or simply no granted permissions, i.e., all permissions set to none. Since the build-summary job only echoes results and does not interact with the repository or GitHub API, it does not require permissions. Therefore, we should add the following at the root of the workflow, just after the name field (and before any on:/jobs: keys), applying minimal permissions to all jobs in the workflow. If only the build-summary job is affected and others do require permissions, a permissions block can be added specifically to that job instead; however, setting it at the root is safest for this case and future jobs.

Steps to implement:

• Add a new permissions: {} block immediately under the name: Reproducible Builds Verification line in .github/workflows/reproducible-builds.yml.
• No imports or extra definitions are needed.
