Small plug: consider using Toast [1] to define your CI jobs. It's essentially Make + Docker. You define whatever targets you want (build, test, lint, etc.) and the dependencies between them in a YAML file, and Toast runs them in Docker containers. You can run your jobs on any machine that has Docker—including CI systems like Travis and GitHub Actions. You aren't locked into any CI system, and you can also run your jobs locally.

curryhoward·Nov 3, 2020Recommendation phrase
A small plug: Toast (https://github.com/stepchowfun/toast) has already introduced a patch for this vulnerability (CVE-2020-15228), so arbitrary user code running inside Toast will not be able to trigger this vulnerability when run via a GitHub Action. I highly recommend using Toast for your CI jobs (with or without GitHub Actions), not just for this security fix but also because it also allows you to run your CI jobs locally. It just runs everything inside Docker containers, so it works the same in CI, on your laptop, on your coworker's machine, etc.
