fix: support vendored Kubescape artifacts - #81
Conversation
Signed-off-by: Gaurav Chaudhary <chaudharygaurav2004@gmail.com>
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe action adds an optional vendored Kubescape artifacts input and validates its path before scanning. It also constructs scan commands from discrete arguments and validates version inputs. The pull request example separates scanning from review publishing, and new tests cover action behavior and workflow execution. ChangesVendored artifacts and safe scan execution

Blocking: inputs.artifacts is interpolated directly into the generated Bash script in action.yml. A value such as "; <command>; # can terminate the quoted docker run argument and execute on the runner before entrypoint.sh performs any path validation.
Please pass ${{ inputs.artifacts }} through the step-level env map, then use the shell variable in the command (for example, -e INPUT_ARTIFACTS="$INPUT_ARTIFACTS"). Please also add coverage at the composite-action command-construction boundary; the current injection test invokes entrypoint.sh directly, so it cannot detect this pre-entrypoint expansion.
I ran the entrypoint suite (12/12 passing), Bash syntax checks, workflow actionlint, and git diff --check. I did not find another blocker, but this command-injection path needs to be fixed before merge.

The original inputs.artifacts injection blocker is fixed: the value now crosses the composite-action boundary through env, and the new regression test detects reintroduction of direct expression interpolation. The entrypoint suite (12/12), action boundary test (1/1), Bash syntax checks, targeted actionlint, and git diff --check all pass locally.
There is a new security blocker in .github/workflows/example-fix-pr-review.yaml: allow-unsafe-pr-checkout: true explicitly checks attacker-controlled fork contents out in a pull_request_target job that has the base repository token and Kubescape credentials. The workflow then passes tj-actions/changed-files@v35's attacker-controlled all_changed_files output into this action's files input, and action.yml still interpolates ${{ inputs.files }} directly into the generated Bash script.
I reproduced command execution using a fork filename evil\"; touch PWNED; #.yaml. changed-files@v35/git diff --name-only emits "evil\\\"; touch PWNED; #.yaml"; substituting that value at the current INPUT_FILES="${{ inputs.files }}" line executes touch PWNED on the trusted runner before the container starts.
Please do not opt back into unsafe fork checkout in this privileged workflow until attacker-controlled values are data-only across the runner-shell boundary. Prefer running fork-content analysis under pull_request without secrets/write permissions and separating any privileged posting step; if this pull_request_target design must remain, at minimum pass files through step-level env (with regression coverage using a malicious filename) and audit the remaining direct ${{ inputs.* }} shell interpolations before enabling the checkout.
The currently failing kubescape-fix-pr-reviews check is the default-branch pull_request_target workflow being blocked by actions/checkout; bypassing that guard without closing the downstream injection path is not safe to merge.
Pass composite inputs through environment variables and execute Kubescape with an argument array. Preserve literal path globs and separate read-only PR scans from same-repository review publishing. Remove unsafe checkout and its obsolete lint suppression. Signed-off-by: Gaurav Chaudhary <chaudharygaurav2004@gmail.com>

GitHub Actions official documentation jobs needs if always skipped failed dependency upload-artifact v4 artifact-id output
💡 Result:
If you’re asking how to make an artifact-upload job run even when a dependency fails or is skipped:
- By default, a job that `needs` a failed or skipped job is skipped too. Put `if: always()` on the dependent job to have it run after its dependencies finish regardless of their result. ([docs.github.com](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/workflows-and-actions/workflow-syntax?s=09&utm_source=openai))
- `actions/upload-artifact@v4` exposes an `artifact-id` output after a successful upload. The current action metadata says it is empty if upload fails. Capture it with a step `id`, then map it to a job output if another job needs it. ([github.com](https://github.com/actions/upload-artifact/blob/main/README.md?utm_source=openai))
```yaml
jobs:
upload:
needs: [build]
if: always()
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
outputs:
artifact_id: ${{ steps.upload.outputs.artifact-id }}
steps:
- uses: actions/upload-artifact@v4
id: upload
with:
name: results
path: output/
follow-up:
needs: upload
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- run: echo "${{ needs.upload.outputs.artifact_id }}"
```
This example assumes `output/` exists; `always()` makes the job eligible to run, but does not ensure the upload succeeds. The current action README and metadata are on the repository’s `main` branch, not a version-pinned v4 reference, so they don’t independently establish v4-specific output behavior. The release history does show v4 as the artifact-backend change. ([github.com](https://github.com/actions/upload-artifact/releases?utm_source=openai))

Allow review publication after a failed scan with a successful artifact upload.
publish-reviews has a needs dependency but no status-check function, so GitHub Actions applies its implicit success() condition. A failed Kubescape scan can still upload results.sarif, but the publishing job is skipped.
Expose upload-step success as a job output and guard the publishing job with always(), the repository check, and that output.

Re-reviewed head 2a0cfadbdf7645bbfa4cb76538279f451a7642e0. The previous security blockers are resolved: action inputs cross the runner boundary via environment variables, the entrypoint constructs an argument array instead of using eval, and fork content is scanned under a read-only pull_request job without supplied secrets. Review publication is restricted to same-repository PRs.
Local validation passes: 18/18 entrypoint tests, 22/22 action boundary tests, Bash syntax, targeted actionlint, and git diff --check. Independent code and architecture reviews found no merge blockers. Docker/offline integration was not rerun during this review.
The failed pull_request_target check executes the old default-branch workflow and fails at checkout's fork safety guard; the replacement pull_request scan passes. Do not bypass that guard to make the legacy check green.
The existing bot suggestion to publish after a failed scan with successfully uploaded results is a nonblocking follow-up for threshold-enabled workflows. The supplied example uses fixFiles: true and no explicit failure/compliance threshold. No further blocking comments; approved.

Overview
Add an optional
artifactsinput so configuration scans can use a reviewed, vendored Kubescape policy bundle through--use-artifacts- from.This provides reproducible policy and rule evaluation when the action, Kubescape version, manifests, and artifact bundle are pinned. Existing workflows continue downloading live policies when
artifactsis not specified.Changes
artifactsaction input.Compatibility
Kubescape v4.0.13 gives explicit
exceptionsandcontrolsConfiginputs precedence over files in the artifact bundle. Older versions such as v3.0.21 prefer the bundle copies. Both combinations remain supported and their behavior is documented.When account credentials are supplied, they are still forwarded, while the vendored directory remains the policy source.
