Summary

Upgrade GitHub Actions to their latest versions for improved features, bug fixes, and security updates.

Changes

Action Old Version(s) New Version Release Files
aws-actions/closed-issue-message v1 v2 Release closed-issue-message.yml
aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials v4 v6 Release codebuild-ci-integration-tests.yml, codebuild-ci.yml, merge-queue-metric.yml, s3-regression-tests.yml
aws-actions/stale-issue-cleanup v4 v7.1.1 Release stale-issue.yml
github/codeql-action/analyze v3 v4 Release codeql.yml
github/codeql-action/init v3 v4 Release codeql.yml

Why upgrade?

Keeping GitHub Actions up to date ensures:

  • Security: Latest security patches and fixes
  • Features: Access to new functionality and improvements
  • Compatibility: Better support for current GitHub features
  • Performance: Optimizations and efficiency improvements

Security Note

Actions that were previously pinned to commit SHAs remain pinned to SHAs (updated to the latest release SHA) to maintain the security benefits of immutable references.

Testing

These changes only affect CI/CD workflow configurations and should not impact application functionality. The workflows should be tested by running them on a branch before merging.

@salmanmkc one of the Actions is failing:

Stale issue job
Unable to resolve action aws-actions/stale-issue-cleanup@v7, unable to find version v7

Looks like there's no v7 tag - https://github.com/aws-actions/stale-issue-cleanup/tags
