[DO-NOT-MERGE]: For debugging s1 scans

[asutosh]

Add debug for debugging s1 cns cli issues

[probelabs]

This PR modifies the .github/workflows/s1-cns-scan.yml workflow to enable verbose logging for debugging the SentinelOne (s1) CNS CLI. The changes are intended to be temporary, as indicated by the [DO-NOT-MERGE] prefix in the title.

Files Changed Analysis

• File Modified: .github/workflows/s1-cns-scan.yml
• Changes: 6 additions, 4 deletions.
• Summary: The changes consistently add debugging flags across all steps that invoke the s1-cns-cli tool. The --debug flag is added to all commands, and the GODEBUG=http2debug=1 environment variable is set for the secret and iac scan steps to provide low-level HTTP/2 debugging output.

Architecture & Impact Assessment

• What this PR accomplishes: It enables detailed diagnostic logging for the SentinelOne security scanning workflow to help troubleshoot CI failures or unexpected behavior.
• Key technical changes introduced:
  • The --debug flag has been added to all s1-cns-cli commands (config, scan secret, scan iac, scan vuln).
  • The GODEBUG=http2debug=1 environment variable is set for two of the scanning steps.
• Affected system components: The impact is strictly limited to the s1-cns-scan GitHub Actions workflow. No application code is affected. The primary consequence is a significant increase in log verbosity, which could expose sensitive data in CI logs, making it unsuitable for a production environment.

Scope Discovery & Context Expansion

• The scope is narrowly confined to the execution of the SentinelOne scanner within the CI/CD pipeline.
• The PR title and the nature of the changes confirm that this is a short-lived debugging effort on a feature branch, intended to be reverted after the investigation is complete. No further context expansion is necessary as the change is self-contained.

Metadata

• Review Effort: 1 / 5
• Primary Label: chore

Security Issues (1)

Severity	Location	Issue
🔴 Critical	.github/workflows/s1-cns-scan.yml:61-95	Enabling verbose debug logging (`--debug` and `GODEBUG=http2debug=1`) for the SentinelOne scanner CLI introduces a critical risk of exposing sensitive data in the GitHub Actions logs. These flags can cause the tool to print secrets, such as the `S1_API_TOKEN`, and other sensitive operational data, which could lead to unauthorized access to the security platform. 💡 Suggestion Remove the `--debug` flags and `GODEBUG` environment variables from the workflow. While the PR is marked as 'DO-NOT-MERGE' and is intended for temporary debugging, committing changes that can expose secrets to any branch is a significant security risk. This PR should be closed without merging, and the branch should be deleted after the debugging session is complete.

Architecture Issues (1)

Severity	Location	Issue
🟡 Warning	.github/workflows/s1-cns-scan.yml:63-96	Hard-coding debug flags directly into workflow steps is a fragile pattern for troubleshooting. This approach requires creating temporary branches and pull requests, and carries a risk of accidentally merging debug configurations into the main branch, potentially exposing sensitive information in logs. A more robust architectural pattern is to use workflow inputs to control debug verbosity dynamically. 💡 Suggestion To make debugging a deliberate, reusable, and safer feature of the CI pipeline, consider refactoring the workflow to use a `workflow_dispatch` input to toggle debug flags. This eliminates the need for temporary code changes. Example Implementation: Add a workflow_dispatch trigger with a boolean input: on: # ... other triggers workflow_dispatch: inputs: debug_enabled: description: 'Enable S1 CLI debug logging' type: boolean default: false Conditionally add the --debug flag and GODEBUG environment variable in the relevant steps: - name: Configure SentinelOne Shift Left CLI run: s1-cns-cli config ${{ github.event.inputs.debug_enabled && '--debug' || '' }} --service-user-api-token "$S1_TOKEN" ... - name: Run Secret Scanner run: s1-cns-cli scan secret ${{ github.event.inputs.debug_enabled && '--debug' || '' }} -d "$PWD" ... env: GODEBUG: ${{ github.event.inputs.debug_enabled && 'http2debug=1' || '' }} # ... other env vars

Performance Issues (1)

Severity	Location	Issue
🟡 Warning	.github/workflows/s1-cns-scan.yml:61-96	The added `--debug` flags and `GODEBUG=http2debug=1` environment variable will significantly increase CI job execution time and log volume. While acceptable for temporary debugging, these changes introduce a performance regression and should not be merged into a long-lived branch. 💡 Suggestion Ensure these debugging flags are removed before this branch is merged. The `[DO-NOT-MERGE]` prefix in the pull request title is a good safeguard, but the flags should ultimately be reverted to prevent accidental performance degradation in the main branch.

Quality Issues (1)

Severity	Location	Issue
🟡 Warning	.github/workflows/s1-cns-scan.yml:63-96	Hardcoded debug flags (`--debug` and `GODEBUG=http2debug=1`) have been added. While acceptable for a temporary branch explicitly marked as 'DO-NOT-MERGE', these flags cause verbose logging that can expose sensitive information (like tokens, environment details, or internal application data) in CI output. Merging these changes would create a security risk. 💡 Suggestion Ensure these debugging flags are removed before this branch is ever considered for merging. For future debugging, consider using a GitHub secret to conditionally enable debug mode (e.g., `if: secrets.DEBUG_MODE == 'true'`) to avoid committing them directly to the workflow file.
