Users can override this behavior with a setting change (see below).</p> </blockquote> <h3>Direct downloads</h3> <p>To support direct uploads in <code>actions/upload-artifact</code>, the action will no longer attempt to unzip all downloaded files. Instead, the action checks the <code>Content-Type</code> header ahead of unzipping and skips non-zipped files. Callers wishing to download a zipped file as-is can also set the new <code>skip-decompress</code> parameter to <code>true</code>.</p> <h3>Enforced checks (breaking)</h3> <p>A previous release introduced digest checks on the download. If a download hash didn't match the expected hash from the server, the action would log a warning. Callers can now configure the behavior on mismatch with the <code>digest-mismatch</code> parameter. To be secure by default, we are now defaulting the behavior to <code>error</code> which will fail the workflow run.</p> <h3>ESM</h3> <p>To support new versions of the @actions/* packages, we've upgraded the package to ESM.</p> <h2>What's Changed</h2> <ul> <li>Don't attempt to un-zip non-zipped downloads by <a href="https://github.com/danwkennedy"><code>@danwkennedy</code></a> in <a href="https://redirect.github.com/actions/download-artifact/pull/460">actions/download-artifact#460</a></li> <li>Add a setting to specify what to do on hash mismatch and default it to <code>error</code> by <a href="https://github.com/danwkennedy"><code>@danwkennedy</code></a> in <a href="https://redirect.github.com/actions/download-artifact/pull/461">actions/download-artifact#461</a></li> </ul> <p><strong>Full Changelog</strong>: <a href="https://github.com/actions/download-artifact/compare/v7...v8.0.0">https://github.com/actions/download-artifact/compare/v7...v8.0.0</a></p> </blockquote> </details> <details> <summary>Commits</summary> <ul> <li><a href="https://github.com/actions/download-artifact/commit/3e5f45b2cfb9172054b4087a40e8e0b5a5461e7c"><code>3e5f45b</code></a> Add regression tests for CJK characters (<a href="https://redirect.github.com/actions/download-artifact/issues/471">#471</a>)</li> <li><a href="https://github.com/actions/download-artifact/commit/e6d03f67377d4412c7aa56a8e2e4988e6ec479dd"><code>e6d03f6</code></a> Add a regression test for artifact name + content-type mismatches (<a href="https://redirect.github.com/actions/download-artifact/issues/472">#472</a>)</li> <li><a href="https://github.com/actions/download-artifact/commit/70fc10c6e5e1ce46ad2ea6f2b72d43f7d47b13c3"><code>70fc10c</code></a> Merge pull request <a href="https://redirect.github.com/actions/download-artifact/issues/461">#461</a> from actions/danwkennedy/digest-mismatch-behavior</li> <li><a href="https://github.com/actions/download-artifact/commit/f258da9a506b755b84a09a531814700b86ccfc62"><code>f258da9</code></a> Add change docs</li> <li><a href="https://github.com/actions/download-artifact/commit/ccc058e5fbb0bb2352213eaec3491e117cbc4a5c"><code>ccc058e</code></a> Fix linting issues</li> <li><a href="https://github.com/actions/download-artifact/commit/bd7976ba57ecea96e6f3df575eb922d11a12a9fd"><code>bd7976b</code></a> Add a setting to specify what to do on hash mismatch and default it to <code>error</code></li> <li><a href="https://github.com/actions/download-artifact/commit/ac21fcf45e0aaee541c0f7030558bdad38d77d6c"><code>ac21fcf</code></a> Merge pull request <a href="https://redirect.github.com/actions/download-artifact/issues/460">#460</a> from actions/danwkennedy/download-no-unzip</li> <li><a href="https://github.com/actions/download-artifact/commit/15999bff51058bc7c19b50ebbba518eaef7c26c0"><code>15999bf</code></a> Add note about package bumps</li> <li><a href="https://github.com/actions/download-artifact/commit/974686ed5098c7f9c9289ec946b9058e496a2561"><code>974686e</code></a> Bump the version to <code>v8</code> and add release notes</li> <li><a href="https://github.com/actions/download-artifact/commit/fbe48b1d2756394be4cd4358ed3bc1343b330e75"><code>fbe48b1</code></a> Update test names to make it clearer what they do</li> <li>Additional commits viewable in <a href="https://github.com/actions/download-artifact/compare/v7...3e5f45b2cfb9172054b4087a40e8e0b5a5461e7c">compare view</a></li> </ul> </details> <br />

The short version
What changed, and why it matters
This is a routine update to a GitHub Actions helper used in one workflow. The change bumps the version of the action that downloads saved files (artifacts) during automated fuzzing tests. The new version makes the tool stricter about file integrity checks and changes how it handles compressed files. There is no direct evidence this fixes an active security problem in the rust-bitcoin project itself, but staying current with action versions is generally good maintenance hygiene.
Recommended action
Treat as routine maintenance. Verify the pinned commit hash 3e5f45b2cfb9172054b4087a40e8e0b5a5461e7c matches the official actions/download-artifact v8.0.1 release. Review whether continue-on-error: true is still appropriate now that hash mismatches error by default, as it would silently ignore integrity failures. No urgent security response is indicated.
Security signals we found
01
CI dependency version bump
02
Upstream action now defaults hash-mismatch handling to error
The commit updates .github/workflows/corpus-fuzzing.yml to use actions/download-artifact@v8.0.1 (commit 3e5f45b2) instead of v7.0.0. The upstream v8 release notes highlight two behavior changes: (1) migration to ESM, which should be transparent, and (2) digest/hash mismatches now error by default rather than warn. The workflow uses continue-on-error: true, so a hash mismatch would not fail the job. The change is a dependency bump in CI only and does not modify rust-bitcoin source code, cryptography, or released binaries.
