What

A workflow script path is now refused unless it is a path the tool itself returned or a file you can already read, meaning one under the working directory or an added directory. The refusal states the rule explicitly instead of the path being used silently.

Details
  • Applies unconditionally, with no flag to relax it.
Evidence

scriptPath must be a script path this tool returned, or a file you can already read

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
