VNX-GH-104: Action repository archived, missing or hijackable
The referenced action is archived, deleted, or its owner was renamed or removed.
An archived action gets no security fixes. A deleted repository, or an owner that was renamed or removed, lets anyone register the old name and publish code under it (repo-jacking); unpinned references then run it.
