a reviewed immutable `@sha256` digest instead of the mutable :latest tag,
preserving the existing registry and image name.
- Line 55: Pin all four external GitHub Actions to reviewed full commit SHAs:
replace docker/login-action@v3 at .github/actions/sync-athena/action.yml:55 and
each actions/checkout@v6 at .github/workflows/sync-athena.yml:34, :59, and :82.
No other workflow behavior should change.

Pin the container image to a digest.
:latest can resolve to different image content. The action pulls and runs that image with ATHENA_TOKEN and GITHUB_TOKEN. A registry writer or compromised publishing pipeline can replace the image and exfiltrate both credentials. Use a reviewed @sha256:... digest instead. Docker documents that a digest pins the exact image version. (docs.docker.com)

Pin all external GitHub Actions to reviewed full commit SHAs.
The mutable @v3 and @v6 tags can be retargeted. The login action directly receives registry_token. Each checkout action runs before the workspace-local sync action and can alter it before Athena and registry credentials are passed. GitHub identifies full commit SHAs as immutable action references.

Based on learnings: GitHub Actions must pin third-party actions to a full commit SHA.

Run the secret-using PR sync from trusted workflow content. pr-to-task runs for same-repository pull requests. The default checkout for pull_request uses the PR merge ref, so ./.github/actions/sync-athena resolves from PR-controlled content. The job passes Athena and registry secrets to that action. A contributor can modify the composite action to read and exfiltrate those inputs.
Move this job to a trusted pull_request_target workflow or a separate trusted workflow. Do not check out PR content. If the job remains in this workflow, at minimum check out ${{ github.event.pull_request.base.sha }} before resolving the local action. This protects the local action, but a pull_request workflow itself remains PR-controlled.
