The short version
What changed, and why it matters
This commit updates the GitHub Actions checkout tool used in one automated workflow from version 6.0.2 to version 7.0.0. The new version is a security-focused release that blocks a risky pattern when checking out code from pull requests in forked repositories. This is a routine dependency update that slightly hardens the project's continuous integration setup, not a fix for a vulnerability in the rust-bitcoin library itself.
Recommended action
No immediate action required. Verify the workflow still passes and consider reviewing other workflows for similar actions/checkout updates. The change is a routine security hardening update.
Security signals we found
01
Dependency update to actions/checkout v7.0.0
02
Upstream v7.0.0 blocks unsafe fork PR checkout for pull_request_target/workflow_run triggers
03
Workflow already uses persist-credentials: false on most checkout steps
04
No changes to rust-bitcoin source code or cryptographic logic
Technical analysis
Evidence from the diff
The change bumps actions/checkout from v6.0.2 (commit de0fac2) to v7.0.0 (commit 9c091bb) in .github/workflows/corpus-fuzzing.yml. The v7.0.0 upstream release notes highlight a breaking security change: blocking checkout of fork PR refs for pull_request_target and workflow_run triggers unless explicitly allowed. The workflow here uses standard push/pull_request triggers and already sets persist-credentials: false in most cases, so the direct security impact is limited. The update is a hardening measure rather than a response to an active vulnerability in rust-bitcoin code.
