From 66603d590bae7c6d2059c65ee66486f2a2d451f8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "sec-check[bot]" Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2026 19:19:28 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 1/4] fix(ci): retry transient GHCR errors in check-oci-refs.py Add retry-with-backoff for 403/429/5xx responses from the GHCR packages API in tag_exists_in_ghcr(). After retries are exhausted, skip the existence check for that ref with a warning instead of letting the traceback fail the whole validate job. 404 still means "doesn't exist" and other non-transient errors still raise.

It answers 401 for every ref, so the status carries no information about whether the ref exists -- but tag_exists_in_ghcr re-raised it, turning a token-capability limit into a hard 'ref regression' failure of the whole validate job. 401 joins the set already used for 403/429/5xx: retry, then return None so the caller skips the existence check for that ref rather than failing closed on a question the API refused to answer. The existing non-transient test used 401 as its example; it now uses 422, and a new test pins 401 to the retry-then-None path.
