Add vulnerability-alerts permission to workflow schema#356
Merged
Conversation
Add vulnerability-alerts as a new read-only permission key in the permissions-mapping. This permission allows workflows to read Dependabot alerts via GITHUB_TOKEN. Uses permission-level-read-or-no-access type (read and none only). Updated security-events description to reflect it covers code scanning alerts only.
