Bumps github/codeql-action from 3 to 4.

Release notes

Sourced from github/codeql-action's releases.

v3.35.5

  • 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

v3.35.4

  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.4. #3881

v3.35.3

  • 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

v3.35.2

  • The undocumented TRAP cache cleanup feature that could be enabled using the CODEQL_ACTION_CLEANUP_TRAP_CACHES environment variable is deprecated and will be removed in May 2026. If you are affected by this, we recommend disabling TRAP caching by passing the trap-caching: false input to the init Action. #3795
  • The Git version 2.36.0 requirement for improved incremental analysis now only applies to repositories that contain submodules. #3789
  • Python analysis on GHES no longer extracts the standard library, relying instead on models of the standard library. This should result in significantly faster extraction and analysis times, while the effect on alerts should be minimal. #3794
  • Fixed a bug in the validation of OIDC configurations for private registries that was added in CodeQL Action 4.33.0 / 3.33.0. #3807
  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.2. #3823

v3.35.1

v3.35.0

v3.34.1

  • Downgrade default CodeQL bundle version to 2.24.3 due to issues with a small percentage of Actions and JavaScript analyses. #3762

v3.34.0

  • Added an experimental change which disables TRAP caching when improved incremental analysis is enabled, since improved incremental analysis supersedes TRAP caching. This will improve performance and reduce Actions cache usage. We expect to roll this change out to everyone in March. #3569
  • We are rolling out improved incremental analysis to C/C++ analyses that use build mode none. We expect this rollout to be complete by the end of April 2026. #3584
  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.0. #3585

v3.33.0

  • Upcoming change: Starting April 2026, the CodeQL Action will skip collecting file coverage information on pull requests to improve analysis performance. File coverage information will still be computed on non-PR analyses. Pull request analyses will log a warning about this upcoming change. #3562 To opt out of this change:
    • Repositories owned by an organization: Create a custom repository property with the name github-codeql-file-coverage-on-prs and the type "True/false", then set this property to true in the repository's settings. For more information, see Managing custom properties for repositories in your organization. Alternatively, if you are using an advanced setup workflow, you can set the CODEQL_ACTION_FILE_COVERAGE_ON_PRS environment variable to true in your workflow.
    • User-owned repositories using default setup: Switch to an advanced setup workflow and set the CODEQL_ACTION_FILE_COVERAGE_ON_PRS environment variable to true in your workflow.
    • User-owned repositories using advanced setup: Set the CODEQL_ACTION_FILE_COVERAGE_ON_PRS environment variable to true in your workflow.
  • Fixed a bug which caused the CodeQL Action to fail loading repository properties if a "Multi select" repository property was configured for the repository. #3557
  • The CodeQL Action now loads custom repository properties on GitHub Enterprise Server, enabling the customization of features such as github-codeql-disable-overlay that was previously only available on GitHub.com. #3559
  • Once private package registries can be configured with OIDC-based authentication for organizations, the CodeQL Action will now be able to accept such configurations. #3563
  • Fixed the retry mechanism for database uploads. Previously this would fail with the error "Response body object should not be disturbed or locked". #3564
  • A warning is now emitted if the CodeQL Action detects a repository property whose name suggests that it relates to the CodeQL Action, but which is not one of the properties recognised by the current version of the CodeQL Action. #3570

Changelog

Sourced from github/codeql-action's changelog.

4.31.5 - 24 Nov 2025

  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.23.6. #3321

4.31.4 - 18 Nov 2025

No user facing changes.

4.31.3 - 13 Nov 2025

  • CodeQL Action v3 will be deprecated in December 2026. The Action now logs a warning for customers who are running v3 but could be running v4. For more information, see Upcoming deprecation of CodeQL Action v3.
  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.23.5. #3288

4.31.2 - 30 Oct 2025

No user facing changes.

4.31.1 - 30 Oct 2025

  • The add-snippets input has been removed from the analyze action. This input has been deprecated since CodeQL Action 3.26.4 in August 2024 when this removal was announced.

4.31.0 - 24 Oct 2025

  • Bump minimum CodeQL bundle version to 2.17.6. #3223
  • When SARIF files are uploaded by the analyze or upload-sarif actions, the CodeQL Action automatically performs post-processing steps to prepare the data for the upload. Previously, these post-processing steps were only performed before an upload took place. We are now changing this so that the post-processing steps will always be performed, even when the SARIF files are not uploaded. This does not change anything for the upload-sarif action. For analyze, this may affect Advanced Setup for CodeQL users who specify a value other than always for the upload input. #3222

4.30.9 - 17 Oct 2025

  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.23.3. #3205
  • Experimental: A new setup-codeql action has been added which is similar to init, except it only installs the CodeQL CLI and does not initialize a database. Do not use this in production as it is part of an internal experiment and subject to change at any time. #3204

4.30.8 - 10 Oct 2025

No user facing changes.

4.30.7 - 06 Oct 2025

  • [v4+ only] The CodeQL Action now runs on Node.js v24. #3169

3.30.6 - 02 Oct 2025

  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.23.2. #3168

3.30.5 - 26 Sep 2025

  • We fixed a bug that was introduced in 3.30.4 with upload-sarif which resulted in files without a .sarif extension not getting uploaded. #3160

3.30.4 - 25 Sep 2025

  • We have improved the CodeQL Action's ability to validate that the workflow it is used in does not use different versions of the CodeQL Action for different workflow steps. Mixing different versions of the CodeQL Action in the same workflow is unsupported and can lead to unpredictable results. A warning will now be emitted from the codeql-action/init step if different versions of the CodeQL Action are detected in the workflow file. Additionally, an error will now be thrown by the other CodeQL Action steps if they load a configuration file that was generated by a different version of the codeql-action/init step. #3099 and #3100
