Updates github/codeql-action/init from 3.37.3 to 4.37.4

Release notes

Sourced from github/codeql-action/init's releases.

v4.37.4

This version of the CodeQL Action adds support for the tools input for the codeql-action/init step to be specified using a github-codeql-tools repository property. This feature will gradually be rolled out following the release of this version. Once rolled out, this allows for the CodeQL CLI version that is used in GitHub-managed workflows, such as Default Setup, to be set to a custom value. For example, customers who run into issues with rate limits when a new CodeQL CLI version is released can set the value to toolcache to always use the CodeQL CLI version that is available in the runner toolcache. For Advanced Setup workflows, the value provided for tools in the workflow definition always takes precedence unless the value of the repository property starts with !. #4037

Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.26.2. #4051

v4.37.3

No user facing changes.

v4.37.2

The new address format for the config-file input that was introduced in CodeQL Action 4.37.0 is now enabled by default. In addition to the format described there, the remote= prefix can now be used to explicitly indicate that the input refers to a remote file. All previous input formats continue to be accepted as well. #4023

The CodeQL Action can now make use of configured private registries in Default Setup to retrieve CodeQL configuration files from remote repositories that require authentication. This will allow customers to store their CodeQL configuration in a single repository that can then be referenced by Default Setup workflows in other repositories. We expect to roll this and other, related changes out to everyone in July. #4007

v4.37.1

Upcoming breaking change: Add a deprecation warning for customers using CodeQL version 2.20.6 and earlier. These versions of CodeQL were discontinued on 1 July 2026 alongside GitHub Enterprise Server 3.16, and will be unsupported by the next minor release of the CodeQL Action. #3956

Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.26.1. #4019

v4.37.0

Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.26.0. #3995

In addition to the existing input format, the config-file input for the codeql-action/init step will soon support a new [owner/]repo[@ref][:path] format. All components except the repository name are optional. If omitted, owner defaults to the same owner as the repository the analysis is running for, ref to main, and path to .github/codeql-action.yaml. Support for this format ships in this version of the CodeQL Action, but will only be enabled over the coming weeks. #3973

v4.36.3

No user facing changes.

v4.36.2

Cache CodeQL CLI version information across Actions steps. #3943

Reduce requests while waiting for analysis processing by using exponential backoff when polling SARIF processing status. #3937

Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.6. #3948

v4.36.1

No user facing changes.

v4.36.0

Breaking change: Bump the minimum required CodeQL bundle version to 2.19.4. #3894

Add support for SHA-256 Git object IDs. #3893

Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.5. #3926

v4.35.5

We have improved how the JavaScript bundles for the CodeQL Action are generated to avoid duplication across bundles and reduce the size of the repository by around 70%. This should have no effect on the runtime behaviour of the CodeQL Action. #3899

For performance and accuracy reasons, improved incremental analysis will now only be enabled on a pull request when diff-informed analysis is also enabled for that run. If diff-informed analysis is unavailable (for example, because the PR diff ranges could not be computed), the action will fall back to a full analysis. #3791

If multiple inputs are provided for the GitHub-internal analysis-kinds input, only code-scanning will be enabled. The analysis-kinds input is experimental, for GitHub-internal use only, and may change without notice at any time. #3892

Added an experimental change which, when running a Code Scanning analysis for a PR with improved incremental analysis enabled, prefers CodeQL CLI versions that have a cached overlay-base database for the configured languages. This speeds up analysis for a repository when there is not yet a cached overlay-base database for the latest CLI version. We expect to roll this change out to everyone in May. #3880

v4.35.4

Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.4. #3881

v4.35.3

Upcoming breaking change: Add a deprecation warning for customers using CodeQL version 2.19.3 and earlier. These versions of CodeQL were discontinued on 9 April 2026 alongside GitHub Enterprise Server 3.15, and will be unsupported by the next minor release of the CodeQL Action. #3837

Configurations for private registries that use Cloudsmith or GCP OIDC are now accepted. #3850

Best-effort connection tests for private registries now use GET requests instead of HEAD for better compatibility with various registry implementations. For NuGet feeds, the test is now always performed against the service index. #3853

Fixed a bug where two diagnostics produced within the same millisecond could overwrite each other on disk, causing one of them to be lost. #3852

Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.3. #3865

We have improved how the JavaScript bundles for the CodeQL Action are generated to avoid duplication across bundles and reduce the size of the repository by around 70%. This should have no effect on the runtime behaviour of the CodeQL Action. #3899

For performance and accuracy reasons, improved incremental analysis will now only be enabled on a pull request when diff-informed analysis is also enabled for that run. If diff-informed analysis is unavailable (for example, because the PR diff ranges could not be computed), the action will fall back to a full analysis. #3791

If multiple inputs are provided for the GitHub-internal analysis-kinds input, only code-scanning will be enabled. The analysis-kinds input is experimental, for GitHub-internal use only, and may change without notice at any time. #3892

Added an experimental change which, when running a Code Scanning analysis for a PR with improved incremental analysis enabled, prefers CodeQL CLI versions that have a cached overlay-base database for the configured languages. This speeds up analysis for a repository when there is not yet a cached overlay-base database for the latest CLI version. We expect to roll this change out to everyone in May. #3880

v4.35.4

Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.4. #3881

v4.35.3

Upcoming breaking change: Add a deprecation warning for customers using CodeQL version 2.19.3 and earlier. These versions of CodeQL were discontinued on 9 April 2026 alongside GitHub Enterprise Server 3.15, and will be unsupported by the next minor release of the CodeQL Action. #3837

Configurations for private registries that use Cloudsmith or GCP OIDC are now accepted. #3850

Best-effort connection tests for private registries now use GET requests instead of HEAD for better compatibility with various registry implementations. For NuGet feeds, the test is now always performed against the service index. #3853

Fixed a bug where two diagnostics produced within the same millisecond could overwrite each other on disk, causing one of them to be lost. #3852

Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.3. #3865

4.37.5 - 03 Aug 2026

Fixed a bug where a network error while streaming the download of the CodeQL bundle could terminate the init Action instead of falling back to downloading the bundle before extracting it. #4061

4.37.4 - 29 Jul 2026

This version of the CodeQL Action adds support for the tools input for the codeql-action/init step to be specified using a github-codeql-tools repository property. This feature will gradually be rolled out following the release of this version. Once rolled out, this allows for the CodeQL CLI version that is used in GitHub-managed workflows, such as Default Setup, to be set to a custom value. For example, customers who run into issues with rate limits when a new CodeQL CLI version is released can set the value to toolcache to always use the CodeQL CLI version that is available in the runner toolcache. For Advanced Setup workflows, the value provided for tools in the workflow definition always takes precedence unless the value of the repository property starts with !. #4037

Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.26.2. #4051

4.37.3 - 22 Jul 2026

No user facing changes.

4.37.2 - 21 Jul 2026

The new address format for the config-file input that was introduced in CodeQL Action 4.37.0 is now enabled by default. In addition to the format described there, the remote= prefix can now be used to explicitly indicate that the input refers to a remote file. All previous input formats continue to be accepted as well. #4023

The CodeQL Action can now make use of configured private registries in Default Setup to retrieve CodeQL configuration files from remote repositories that require authentication. This will allow customers to store their CodeQL configuration in a single repository that can then be referenced by Default Setup workflows in other repositories. We expect to roll this and other, related changes out to everyone in July. #4007

4.37.1 - 16 Jul 2026

Upcoming breaking change: Add a deprecation warning for customers using CodeQL version 2.20.6 and earlier. These versions of CodeQL were discontinued on 1 July 2026 alongside GitHub Enterprise Server 3.16, and will be unsupported by the next minor release of the CodeQL Action. #3956

Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.26.1. #4019

4.37.0 - 08 Jul 2026

Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.26.0. #3995

In addition to the existing input format, the config-file input for the codeql-action/init step will soon support a new [owner/]repo[@ref][:path] format. All components except the repository name are optional. If omitted, owner defaults to the same owner as the repository the analysis is running for, ref to main, and path to .github/codeql-action.yaml. Support for this format ships in this version of the CodeQL Action, but will only be enabled over the coming weeks. #3973

4.36.3 - 01 Jul 2026

No user facing changes.

4.36.2 - 04 Jun 2026

Cache CodeQL CLI version information across Actions steps. #3943

Reduce requests while waiting for analysis processing by using exponential backoff when polling SARIF processing status. #3937

Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.6. #3948

4.36.1 - 02 Jun 2026
