actionlint custom self-hosted runner label unknown runner label configuration
💡 Result:
If you receive an unknown runner label error from actionlint, it is because the linter identifies a label in your runs-on configuration that does not match standard GitHub-hosted or known self-hosted runner labels [1][2][3]. To resolve this, you must explicitly inform actionlint about your custom labels by adding them to your project's configuration file [4][1][2]. You can configure this by creating an actionlint.yaml (or actionlint.yml) file in your repository's.github/ directory with the following structure [4]: self-hosted-runner: labels: - custom-label-1 - custom-label-2 - prefix-* The labels field supports glob syntax (using path.Match), allowing you to define patterns for dynamic or repetitive runner labels [4][5]. If you are not sure how to start, you can generate a default configuration file by running the command actionlint -init-config in your terminal [4]. If you prefer to ignore these warnings for specific workflows or globally, you can use the -ignore flag, which supports regex filtering [6][7]: actionlint -ignore 'label ".+" is unknown' This approach allows you to suppress the runner-label check if you have highly dynamic labels that are difficult to manage via static configuration [6].

site:docs.github.com actions self-hosted runners public repository pull requests security untrusted code
💡 Result:
Using self-hosted runners with public repositories is strongly discouraged due to significant security risks [1][2][3]. Because self-hosted runners do not provide the clean, ephemeral, and isolated environments guaranteed by GitHub-hosted runners, any untrusted code executed on them can persistently compromise the machine [1][4]. Key security considerations include: Risk from Pull Requests: Any user who can fork your public repository can open a pull request that triggers a workflow on your self-hosted runner [1][4]. This allows them to execute malicious code, potentially stealing secrets, gaining access to the GITHUB_TOKEN, or compromising the underlying infrastructure [1][5][6]. Lack of Isolation: Unlike GitHub-hosted runners, which are discarded after every job, self-hosted runners are persistent [1][7]. A compromise can persist across multiple jobs, potentially affecting other workflows or sensitive internal resources [1][7]. Mitigation Strategies: If you must use self-hosted runners, the following practices are recommended: 1. Prefer Private Repositories: Official guidance strongly recommends limiting self-hosted runners to private repositories only [1][2][3]. 2. Use Ephemeral Runners: Configure runners to be ephemeral (e.g., using auto-scaling) so that they process only one job and then clean themselves up [7]. This limits the impact of a potential compromise [7]. 3. Implement Runner Groups: Use runner groups to restrict access to specific repositories and organizations, preventing untrusted workflows from being scheduled on your sensitive runners [1][3][8]. 4. Strict Workflow Control: Exercise extreme caution with workflows, especially those using pull_request_target or handling external inputs, as they can be vectors for script injection [9][10]. 5. Network Isolation: Ensure the runner machine is isolated from internal networks and restricted in its ability to access sensitive resources [9]. For most scenarios, particularly those involving public repositories, using GitHub-hosted runners is the safest approach because they offer inherent isolation and security boundaries that self-hosted runners lack [1].

Do not run untrusted pull-request code on thecluster.
This workflow checks out pull-request contents and executes commands on the persistent self-hosted runner at both lines 16 and 47. A malicious pull request can compromise the runner and affect later jobs. Use a GitHub-hosted or ephemeral isolated runner for pull requests, or run thecluster jobs only for trusted pushes.

actionlint self-hosted-runner.labels runs-on custom labels config documentation
💡 Result:
<search_synthesis>
To configure custom self-hosted runner labels in actionlint, you must define them in an actionlint.yaml configuration file [1][2]. When actionlint encounters labels in your workflows that are not among the default GitHub-hosted runner labels, it reports them as unknown unless they are explicitly listed in your configuration [3][4]. Configuration Steps: 1. Create a configuration file (typically.github/actionlint.yaml) in your repository [4]. 2. Add the self-hosted-runner key with a labels sub-key containing your custom labels as a list of strings or patterns [1][5]. Example configuration: self-hosted-runner: labels: - my-custom-label-1 - my-custom-label-2 - prefix-* # Glob pattern support Actionlint supports glob syntax (via path.Match) for these labels, allowing you to match dynamic label patterns [1][6]. Once this file is created, actionlint will recognize these labels as valid during workflow linting [2]. If you are using actionlint via a wrapper or CI action (like reviewdog/action-actionlint), ensure you provide the path to this configuration file using the appropriate flags or local file placement [4].

Static checker for GitHub Actions workflow files | 4K stars | Go - Branch: main ```md Configuration ============= This document describes how to configure [actionlint](..) behavior. Note that configuration file is optional. The author tries to keep configuration file as minimal as possible not to bother users to configure behavior of actionlint. Running actionlint without configuration file would work fine in most cases. ## Configuration file Configuration file `actionlint.yaml` or `actionlint.yml` can be put in `.github` directory. Note: If you&`#39`;re using [Super-Linter][], the file should be placed in a different directory. Please check the project&`#39`;s document. ```yaml # Configuration related to self-hosted runner. self-hosted-runner: # Labels of self-hosted runner in array of strings. labels: - linux.2xlarge - windows-latest-xl - linux-multi-gpu # Configuration variables in array of strings defined in your repository or organization. config-variables: - DEFAULT_RUNNER - JOB_NAME - ENVIRONMENT_STAGE # Path-specific configurations. paths: # Glob pattern relative to the repository root for matching files. The path separator is always &`#39`;/&`#39`;. # This example configures any YAML file under the &`#39`;.github/workflows/&`#39`; directory. .github/workflows/**/*.{yml,yaml}: # List of regular expressions to filter errors by the error messages. ignore: # Ignore the specific error from shellcheck - &`#39`;shellcheck reported issue in this script: SC2086:.+&`#39`; # This pattern only matches &`#39`;.github/workflows/release.yaml&`#39`; file. .github/workflows/release.yaml: ignore: # Ignore errors from the old runner check. This may be useful for (outdated) self-hosted runner environment. - &`#39`;the runner of ".+" action is too old to run on GitHub Actions&`#39`; ``` - `self-hosted-runner`: Configuration for your self-hosted runner environment. - `labels`: Label names added to your self-hosted runners as list of pattern. Glob syntax supported by [`path.Match`][pat] is available. - `config-variables`: [Configuration variables][vars]. When an array is set, actionlint will check `vars` properties strictly. An empty array means no variable is allowed. The default value `null` disables the check. - `paths`: Configurations for specific file path patterns. This is a mapping from a glob pattern and the corresponding configuration. - `{glob}`: A file path glob pattern to apply the configuration. The path separator is always &`#39`;/&`#39`;. It is matched to the relative path from the repository root. For example `.github/workflows/**/*.yaml` matches all the workflow files (with `.yaml` file extension). For the glob syntax, please read the [doublestar][] library&`#39`;s documentation. - `ignore`: The configuration to ignore (filter) the errors by the error messages. This is an array of regular expressions. When one of the patterns matches the error message, the error will be ignored. It&`#39`;s similar to the `-ignore` command line option. ## Generate the initial configuration You don&`#39`;t need to write the first configuration file by your hand. `actionlint` command can generate a default configuration with `-init-config` flag. ```sh actionlint -init-config vim .github/actionlint.yaml ``` --- [Checks](checks.md) | [Installation](install.md) | [Usage](usage.md) | [Go API](api.md) | [References](reference.md) [Super-Linter]: https://github.com/super-linter/super-linter [pat]: https://pkg.go.dev/path#Match [vars]: https://docs.github.com/en/actions/learn-github-actions/variables [doublestar]: https://github.com/bmatcuk/doublestar ```
