Critical Security Incident involving GitHub Action tj-action/changed-files


A critical security incident involving the tj-actions/changed-files GitHub Action has been reported.

Workflow logs that are made publicly accessible, such as those for public repositories, could allow attackers to obtain exposed secrets for further malicious actions. The issue is tracked as a high-severity vulnerability under CVE-2025-30066.
