[dependabot]

Bumps github/codeql-action/autobuild from 4.37.0 to 4.37.8.

Release notes

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

v4.37.8

No user facing changes.

v4.37.7

• Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.26.3. #4085

v4.37.6

• Changed the default filepath for the new remote file address format that was introduced in CodeQL Action 4.37.0 / 3.37.0 to .github/codeql-config.yml to align it with the suggested path that is used elsewhere. #4070

v4.37.5

• 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

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

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

🟡 CodeQL action steps left on mismatched versions

The autobuild step is bumped to v4.37.8 while init and analyze stay pinned at v4.37.0. The CodeQL Action requires all three steps to run the same release, so this mix can break the analysis job.

Prompt for agents

The codeql.yml workflow uses github/codeql-action init, autobuild, and analyze. This PR bumped only autobuild to v4.37.8 (SHA db488ddef3bf6cb639b32c2e9a7c0a7ea8271d28) while init and analyze remain on v4.37.0 (SHA 99df26d4f13ea111d4ec1a7dddef6063f76b97e9). The CodeQL Action expects all of its sub-actions to be from the same release; mismatched versions are unsupported and can cause the analysis to fail. Update init and analyze to the same v4.37.8 SHA so all three steps stay in sync.

Fresh semantic supersession check: this PR's only production delta is github/codeql-action/autobuild from 99df26d4f13ea111d4ec1a7dddef6063f76b97e9 # v4.37.0 to db488ddef3bf6cb639b32c2e9a7c0a7ea8271d28 # v4.37.8. Canonical CodeQL owner PR #1026 now carries that exact autobuild update together with the matching init and analyze updates plus a regression that requires all three CodeQL job components to share one reviewed SHA/version. #1026 current head is 9532f27b4fc711e198f944e982669eba184519c2; this PR remains 33d4b6ed3f40f8c7eb0e719148673c96da237120. No unique behavior remains here, so closing this competing Dependabot lane unmerged. Validation/merge authority stays with #1026; this closure is not evidence that #1026 is GREEN.

[dependabot]

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.
