Use Go 1.27 with the 1.27.3 toolchain and manifests v0.14.0. Update the archive, checkout, outline, registry, compression and terminal dependencies, along with the pinned Cosign and zizmor actions. Include a CLI regression for global PAX headers: inspecting a one-file git archive now reports one entry instead of two.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores
    • Updated the project’s release and security workflow tooling, along with its Go build environment.
    • No user-facing behavior changes are included in this update.
  • Tests
    • Added coverage verifying that archive inspection reports TAR format and the expected entry count when a TAR includes global metadata.

Walkthrough

The change adds a subprocess test for TAR inspection with a global PAX header, updates the Go toolchain and module dependencies, and advances pinned GitHub Actions versions in the release and Zizmor workflows.

Changes: TAR Inspection Coverage

Layer / File(s) Summary
Global PAX header inspection test
cmd/brief/inspect_test.go
A subprocess test checks that inspection of a TAR with a global PAX header succeeds and reports TAR format with one entry.

Go Toolchain and Module Dependencies

Layer / File(s) Summary
Go toolchain and module versions
go.mod
The required Go version, toolchain version, and direct and indirect dependency versions are updated.

GitHub Actions Pins

Layer / File(s) Summary
Release and Zizmor action versions
.github/workflows/release.yml, .github/workflows/zizmor.yml
The workflows update their pinned cosign-installer and Zizmor action versions.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Suggested labels: dependencies, go

Merge Risk: Minimal · up to 0a5bc

The new archive regression test passes, and no actionable issue remains; the change is ready to merge after normal checks.

Security architecture risk: Low · up to 0a5bc

The reviewed changes do not demonstrate a new privilege grant or weakened archive-containment control. The archive update corrects metadata handling, while release and scanning permissions remain unchanged. Risk remains low rather than minimal because behavior changes in several dependencies and the updated actions have not been fully verified.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • observed — The affected CLI paths already process user-selected files and remote sources under the invoking user's authority, including existing network and git-based acquisition. Separately, the updated actions execute inside jobs with repository-release or security-reporting authority. These are existing exposure scopes, not newly granted identities in this comparison.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The compared archive extraction implementations are identical. They validate names with filepath.Localize, perform filesystem operations through os.Root, skip non-regular entries including archive links, replace destination files rather than modifying existing inodes, and mask extracted permissions to exclude privilege bits. The verified global-PAX change does not remove these controls.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — Each inspection owns a unique temporary tree and archive reader, with deferred removal and closure on normal returns and handled errors. This isolates repeated and concurrent calls from shared extraction paths. Removal errors are ignored, and abrupt process termination is outside the demonstrated cleanup guarantee; neither behavior is newly introduced by this PR.
