Bumps github/codeql-action/init from 4.35.5 to 4.37.1.

Release notes

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

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

v4.37.0

  • 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

v4.36.3

No user facing changes.

v4.36.2

  • Cache CodeQL CLI version information across Actions steps. #3943
  • Reduce requests while waiting for analysis processing by using exponential backoff when polling SARIF processing status. #3937
  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.6. #3948

v4.36.1

No user facing changes.

v4.36.0

  • Breaking change: Bump the minimum required CodeQL bundle version to 2.19.4. #3894
  • Add support for SHA-256 Git object IDs. #3893
  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.5. #3926

4.36.0 - 22 May 2026

  • Breaking change: Bump the minimum required CodeQL bundle version to 2.19.4. #3894
  • Add support for SHA-256 Git object IDs. #3893
  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.5. #3926

4.35.5 - 15 May 2026

  • 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

4.35.4 - 07 May 2026

  • Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.25.4. #3881

4.35.3 - 01 May 2026

P0 CodeQL action version mismatch between init and analyze steps

Security scan job will fail at runtime when analyze@v4.35.5 tries to process a CodeQL database created by init@v4.37.1. The analyze step may crash or produce incomplete results, missing security vulnerabilities.

Assertion details
  • Input: Security workflow runs with init@v4.37.1 and analyze@v4.35.5 in sequence
  • Expected: Both init and analyze actions should be at the same version (v4.37.1) to ensure database format and feature compatibility
  • Actual: init bumped to v4.37.1 while analyze remains at v4.35.5, creating incompatible versions released 2 months apart with breaking changes between them

Datadog Autotest: FAIL

This PR bumps codeql-action/init to v4.37.1 but leaves codeql-action/analyze at v4.35.5, creating a version mismatch. Prior updates always kept both actions synchronized; this incompatibility will cause the security workflow to fail at runtime when analyze attempts to process a database created by the newer init version.
