Summary of ChangesHello @step-security-bot, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed! This pull request, initiated by StepSecurity, significantly enhances the repository's security posture by integrating several best practices. The changes focus on automating dependency updates, enforcing code quality and security checks through pre-commit hooks, and securing Docker builds by pinning base images to immutable digests. These measures collectively aim to reduce vulnerabilities and maintain a robust development environment. Highlights

Code Review
This pull request from StepSecurity introduces several valuable security enhancements, such as pinning base image versions in Dockerfiles to specific digests and setting up pre-commit hooks and Dependabot. These are excellent practices for improving repository security and code quality. I have one suggestion to correct the directory path in the Dependabot configuration for npm packages to ensure it functions as intended.
| - package-ecosystem: npm | ||
| directory: /web/static/vnc | ||

The directory for the npm package ecosystem appears to be incorrect. The package.json and pnpm-lock.yaml files for the web application are in the /web directory, not /web/static/vnc. Updating this path will ensure Dependabot can correctly monitor and update your npm dependencies.

Security Fixes
Least Privileged GitHub Actions Token Permissions
The GITHUB_TOKEN is an automatically generated secret to make authenticated calls to the GitHub API. GitHub recommends setting minimum token permissions for the GITHUB_TOKEN.
Pinned Dependencies
GitHub Action tags and Docker tags are mutable. This poses a security risk. GitHub's Security Hardening guide recommends pinning actions to full length commit.
Harden Runner
Harden-Runner is an open-source security agent for the GitHub-hosted runner to prevent software supply chain attacks. It prevents exfiltration of credentials, detects tampering of source code during build, and enables running jobs without
sudoaccess. See how popular open-source projects use Harden-Runner here.Harden runner usage

Keeping your actions up to date with Dependabot
With Dependabot version updates, when Dependabot identifies an outdated dependency, it raises a pull request to update the manifest to the latest version of the dependency. This is recommended by GitHub as well as The Open Source Security Foundation (OpenSSF).
Detect Vulnerabilities with SAST Workflow
Static Code Analysis (also known as Source Code Analysis) is usually performed as part of a Code Review (also known as clear-box testing) and is carried out at the Implementation phase of a Security Development Lifecycle (SDL). Static Code Analysis commonly refers to the running of Static Code Analysis tools that attempt to highlight possible vulnerabilities within ‘static’ (non-running) source code by using techniques such as Taint Analysis and Data Flow Analysis.
Secure Dockerfiles
Pin image tags to digests in Dockerfiles. With the Docker v2 API release, it became possible to use digests in place of tags when pulling images or to use them in FROM lines in Dockerfiles.
Add Dependency Review Workflow
The Dependency Review Workflow enforces dependency reviews on your pull requests. The action scans for vulnerable versions of dependencies introduced by package version changes in pull requests, and warns you about the associated security vulnerabilities. This gives you better visibility of what's changing in a pull request, and helps prevent vulnerabilities being added to your repository.
Maintain Code Quality with Pre-Commit
Pre-commit is a framework for managing and maintaining multi-language pre-commit hooks. Hooks can be any scripts, code, or binaries that run at any stage of the git workflow. Pre-commit hooks are useful for enforcing code quality, code formatting, and detecting security vulnerabilities.
