Pull request overview
This PR reduces GitHub Actions supply-chain risk in the Dependabot auto-merge workflow by pinning dependabot/fetch-metadata to an immutable commit SHA while keeping the existing pull_request_target permissions and merge gating behavior intact.
Changes:
- Replace
dependabot/fetch-metadata@v2with a full 40-character commit SHA (08eff52…) annotated asv2.4.0. - Preserve the workflow’s existing trigger (
pull_request_target), permissions, and security-update-only merge condition.

Motivation
pull_request_targetworkflow grantedcontents: writeandpull-requests: write, but it executeddependabot/fetch-metadata@v2(a mutable tag) which creates a supply-chain risk if that action tag is compromised, so the action must be pinned to an immutable reviewed commit SHA.Description
