This PR addresses the code scanning finding on GitHub Actions workflow permissions by removing implicit token scope and declaring explicit minimal permissions in CI. The change is narrowly scoped to the existing CI workflow.

• Alert remediation

  • Added an explicit workflow-level permissions block so GITHUB_TOKEN does not inherit broader repository/org defaults.

• Workflow security posture

  • Set the token scope to read-only for repository contents, which matches current CI behavior (checkout + Maven build/test/package) and avoids unnecessary write privileges.

permissions:
  contents: read

🟢 Approval recommended

The single-line contents: read permission is correctly placed and scoped, and matches every step in the workflow, which performs only checkout and read-only Maven builds.

What changed in this PR

This PR hardens the CI GitHub Actions workflow by replacing the implicit GITHUB_TOKEN scope with an explicit, workflow-level least-privilege permissions block. It remediates a code scanning finding about missing workflow token permissions. The contents: read scope matches the workflow's actual needs (checkout + Maven build/test/package), and no step requires write privileges, so the change is functionally safe.

Changes:

• Added a top-level permissions block to .github/workflows/ci.yml scoping GITHUB_TOKEN to contents: read.

File	Description
.github/​workflows/​ci.yml	Declares explicit least-privilege token permissions (contents: read) at the workflow level to remove the implicit broad default scope.

🟢 Approved

The read-only permissions block is syntactically valid and matches the workflow's checkout/build/test/package steps, which need no write scope.
