[dependabot]

Bumps step-security/harden-runner from 2.14.0 to 2.16.1.

Release notes

Sourced from step-security/harden-runner's releases.

v2.16.1

What's Changed

Enterprise tier: Added support for direct IP addresses in the allow list Community tier: Migrated Harden Runner telemetry to a new endpoint

Full Changelog: step-security/harden-runner@v2.16.0...v2.16.1

v2.16.0

What's Changed

• Updated action.yml to use node24
• Security fix: Fixed a medium severity vulnerability where the egress block policy could be bypassed via DNS over HTTPS (DoH) by proxying DNS queries through a permitted resolver, allowing data exfiltration even with a restrictive allowed-endpoints list. This issue only affects the Community Tier; the Enterprise Tier is not affected. See GHSA-46g3-37rh-v698 for details.
• Security fix: Fixed a medium severity vulnerability where the egress block policy could be bypassed via DNS queries over TCP to external resolvers, allowing outbound network communication that evades configured network restrictions. This issue only affects the Community Tier; the Enterprise Tier is not affected. See GHSA-g699-3x6g-wm3g for details.

v2.15.1

What's Changed

• Fixes step-security/harden-runner#642 bug due to which post step was failing on Windows ARM runners
• Updates npm packages

Full Changelog: step-security/harden-runner@v2.15.0...v2.15.1

v2.15.0

What's Changed

Windows and macOS runner support

We are excited to announce that Harden Runner now supports Windows and macOS runners, extending runtime security beyond Linux for the first time.

Insights for Windows and macOS runners will be displayed in the same consistent format you are already familiar with from Linux runners, giving you a unified view of runtime activity across all platforms.

v2.14.2

What's Changed

Security fix: Fixed a medium severity vulnerability where outbound network connections using sendto, sendmsg, and sendmmsg socket system calls could bypass audit logging when using egress-policy: audit. This issue only affects the Community Tier in audit mode; block mode and Enterprise Tier were not affected. See GHSA-cpmj-h4f6-r6pq for details.

Full Changelog: step-security/harden-runner@v2.14.1...v2.14.2

v2.14.1

What's Changed

1. In some self-hosted environments, the agent could briefly fall back to public DNS resolvers during startup if the system DNS was not yet available. This behavior was unintended for GitHub-hosted runners and has now been fixed to prevent any use of public DNS resolvers.

2. Fixed npm audit vulnerabilities

OK, I won't notify you again about this release, but will get in touch when a new version is available. If you'd rather skip all updates until the next major or minor version, let me know by commenting @dependabot ignore this major version or @dependabot ignore this minor version. You can also ignore all major, minor, or patch releases for a dependency by adding an ignore condition with the desired update_types to your config file.

If you change your mind, just re-open this PR and I'll resolve any conflicts on it.
