Potential fix for https://github.com/Short-io/qreator/security/code-scanning/1
To fix the problem, we should add a
permissionsblock to thebuildjob in.github/workflows/test.yml, specifying the least privilege required. For a typical build/test job, this is usuallycontents: read, which allows the job to read repository contents but not write to them. This change should be made directly under thebuild:job definition, before theruns-on:key (or immediately after, as per YAML conventions). No additional imports or definitions are needed; this is a configuration change in the workflow YAML file.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
