Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for skim.

CVE-2026-41414[0]:
| Skim is a fuzzy finder designed to through files, lines, and
| commands. The generate-files job in .github/workflows/pr.yml checks
| out attacker-controlled fork code and executes it via cargo run,
| with access to SKIM_RS_BOT_PRIVATE_KEY and GITHUB_TOKEN
| (contents:write). No gates prevent exploitation - any GitHub user
| can trigger this by opening a pull request from a fork. This
| vulnerability is fixed with commit
| bf63404ad51985b00ed304690ba9d477860a5a75.
