Research direction

Start with the MicrosoftSecurityDevOps@1 task and its gdnconfig, then compare the bundled Checkov versions described in the issue and linked comment. Determine whether the task can use a newer version or accept an override; done means NuGet-built repositories no longer report the affected SHA-512 checksums, or the supported configuration path is documented.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Please see https://github.com/bridgecrewio/checkov/issues/6984#issuecomment-2633056268

Looking at the gdnconfig, it appears that checkov is using 3.2.199, whereas it's currently on 3.2.362.

Can we convince y'all to update to that newer version of checkov? Or can we override it ourselves with our own gdnconfig?

Every repo we have is flagging sha512 checksums as high vulnerabilities.

Further information:
the version that we are getting with the MicrosoftSecurityDevOps@1 task is version 3.2.358, and this version is flagging these checksums. Checkov is currently on version 3.6.362, and the issue appears to have been fixed by 3.6.36. We cannot be the only user whose nuget-build projects are getting flagged by this - any fix or guidance is very much appreciated.
