Code Review
This pull request, generated by Snyk, upgrades @actions/github from 3.0.0 to 6.0.0 to resolve a security vulnerability.
While the upgrade is necessary, it introduces a critical compatibility issue. The new version of @actions/github and its dependencies require Node.js 18 or newer, but the action is configured to run on Node.js 16. This will cause runtime failures.
I've left a detailed comment on package.json explaining the issue and the required fix, which involves updating the action's runtime in action.yml.

| "@actions/exec": "^1.1.1", | ||

This upgrade to @actions/github@6.0.0 introduces a critical compatibility issue.
Many of the updated @octokit/* dependencies, which are dependencies of @actions/github@6.0.0, now require Node.js version 18 or higher. For example, the updated package-lock.json shows that @octokit/core@5.2.2 specifies "node": ">= 18" in its engines field.
However, this action is currently configured to run on node16 in action.yml:
runs:
using: 'node16'main: 'dist/setup/index.js'This version mismatch will cause the action to fail at runtime. To resolve this, you must update the action's runtime in action.yml to node18 or node20.
Recommendation:
Update action.yml to use a newer Node.js runtime. For example:
runs:
using: 'node18'main: 'dist/setup/index.js'Review the following changes in direct dependencies. Learn more about Socket for GitHub.
