<h2>v4.37.3</h2>
<p>No user facing changes.</p>
<h2>v4.37.2</h2>
<ul>
<li>The new address format for the <code>config-file</code> input that was introduced in CodeQL Action 4.37.0 is now enabled by default. In addition to the format described there, the <code>remote=</code> prefix can now be used to explicitly indicate that the input refers to a remote file. All previous input formats continue to be accepted as well. <a href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4023">#4023</a></li>
<li>The CodeQL Action can now make use of <a href="https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/how-tos/secure-at-scale/configure-organization-security/manage-usage-and-access/giving-org-access-private-registries">configured private registries</a> in Default Setup to retrieve CodeQL configuration files from remote repositories that require authentication. This will allow customers to store their CodeQL configuration in a single repository that can then be referenced by Default Setup workflows in other repositories. We expect to roll this and other, related changes out to everyone in July. <a href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4007">#4007</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>v4.37.1</h2>
<ul>
<li><em>Upcoming breaking change</em>: Add a deprecation warning for customers using CodeQL version 2.20.6 and earlier. These versions of CodeQL were discontinued on 1 July 2026 alongside GitHub Enterprise Server 3.16, and will be unsupported by the next minor release of the CodeQL Action. <a href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/3956">#3956</a></li>
<li>Update default CodeQL bundle version to <a href="https://github.com/github/codeql-action/releases/tag/codeql-bundle-v2.26.1">2.26.1</a>. <a href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4019">#4019</a></li>

<h1>CodeQL Action Changelog</h1>
<p>See the <a href="https://github.com/github/codeql-action/releases">releases page</a> for the relevant changes to the CodeQL CLI and language packs.</p>
<h2>[UNRELEASED]</h2>
<p>No user facing changes.</p>
<h2>4.38.1 - 18 Sept 2026</h2>
<ul>
<li>The CodeQL Action now has experimental support for CodeQL releases for which per-language bundles are available. Per-language bundles support analysis for a single language and are therefore smaller than the combined bundles that allow analysis for all supported languages. As a result, per-language bundles take up less space on disk and are faster to download. We expect to roll this change out to everyone in the coming weeks. <a href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4146">#4146</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>4.38.0 - 09 Sept 2026</h2>
<ul>
<li>On GitHub-hosted runners, the CodeQL Action now deletes unused CodeQL bundles from the toolcache before downloading a different bundle, which frees up disk space for the analysis. We expect to roll this change out to everyone in September. <a href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4124">#4124</a></li>
<li>The CodeQL Action now supports CodeQL releases that are compatible with Linux Arm64 and downloads the native <code>linux-arm64</code> CodeQL bundle when available. <a href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4072">#4072</a></li>
<li>Update default CodeQL bundle version to <a href="https://github.com/github/codeql-action/releases/tag/codeql-bundle-v2.27.0">2.27.0</a>. <a href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4129">#4129</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>4.37.9 - 26 Aug 2026</h2>
<ul>
<li>Update default CodeQL bundle version to <a href="https://github.com/github/codeql-action/releases/tag/codeql-bundle-v2.26.4">2.26.4</a>. <a href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4106">#4106</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>4.37.8 - 21 Aug 2026</h2>
<p>No user facing changes.</p>
<h2>4.37.7 - 13 Aug 2026</h2>
<ul>
<li>Update default CodeQL bundle version to <a href="https://github.com/github/codeql-action/releases/tag/codeql-bundle-v2.26.3">2.26.3</a>. <a href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4085">#4085</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>4.37.6 - 04 Aug 2026</h2>
<ul>
<li>Changed the default filepath for the new remote file address format that was introduced in CodeQL Action 4.37.0 / 3.37.0 to <code>.github/codeql-config.yml</code> to align it with the suggested path that is used elsewhere. <a href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4070">#4070</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>4.37.5 - 03 Aug 2026</h2>
<ul>
<li>Fixed a bug where a network error while streaming the download of the CodeQL bundle could terminate the <code>init</code> Action instead of falling back to downloading the bundle before extracting it. <a href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4061">#4061</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>4.37.4 - 29 Jul 2026</h2>
<ul>
<li>This version of the CodeQL Action adds support for the <code>tools</code> input for the <code>codeql-action/init</code> step to be specified using a <code>github-codeql-tools</code> <a href="https://docs.github.com/en/organizations/managing-organization-settings/managing-custom-properties-for-repositories-in-your-organization">repository property</a>. This feature will gradually be rolled out following the release of this version. Once rolled out, this allows for the CodeQL CLI version that is used in GitHub-managed workflows, such as Default Setup, to be set to a custom value. For example, customers who run into issues with rate limits when a new CodeQL CLI version is released can set the value to <code>toolcache</code> to always use the CodeQL CLI version that is available in the runner toolcache. For Advanced Setup workflows, the value provided for <code>tools</code> in the workflow definition always takes precedence unless the value of the repository property starts with <code>!</code>. <a href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4037">#4037</a></li>
<li>Update default CodeQL bundle version to <a href="https://github.com/github/codeql-action/releases/tag/codeql-bundle-v2.26.2">2.26.2</a>. <a href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4051">#4051</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>4.37.3 - 22 Jul 2026</h2>
<p>No user facing changes.</p>
<h2>4.37.2 - 21 Jul 2026</h2>
<ul>
<li>The new address format for the <code>config-file</code> input that was introduced in CodeQL Action 4.37.0 is now enabled by default. In addition to the format described there, the <code>remote=</code> prefix can now be used to explicitly indicate that the input refers to a remote file. All previous input formats continue to be accepted as well. <a href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4023">#4023</a></li>

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This is a routine Dependabot update that changes the pinned version of GitHub's official CodeQL upload-sarif action from 4.37.0 to 4.37.3 in a single CI workflow. The action only uploads static analysis results to GitHub; it does not touch the project's Rust code, dependencies, or build outputs. The upstream release notes state there are no user-facing changes in 4.37.3. There is no indication this introduces or fixes a security issue in rust-bitcoin itself.

Recommended action

No security action required. This is a routine CI dependency bump. Standard review and merge practices apply.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
