Fix artifact poisoning risk in sonarcloud-analysis workflow #384

Description

@noraeb

Summary
Two related security issues exist in .github/workflows/sonarcloud-analysis.yml.

  1. dawidd6/action-download-artifact is pinned to v5, which is vulnerable to artifact poisoning via forks (Dependabot alert, patched in v6)
  2. The SonarCloud build and analysis steps use the pull_request_target trigger, which runs in a privileged context and should not be combined with externally-sourced artifacts

What to do

  1. Upgrade action-download-artifact to v6
  2. Replace pull_request_target with pull_request (see for example https://github.com/com-pas/compas-cim-mapping)

Acceptance criteria

  • action-download-artifact upgraded to v6 or later
  • Trigger changed from pull_request_target to pull_request
  • Dependabot alert resolved
  • SonarCloud analysis still passes on PRs
