Configure the YARA oracle for this job. make test-yara-diff skips and exits successfully when EXAV_YR_BIN is unset. The workflow does not configure EXAV_YR_BIN or install yara-x-cli, so the job can pass without running the differential tests. Install yara-x-cli, set EXAV_YR_BIN to yr, or make the missing oracle fail the job.

Disable persisted checkout credentials in both jobs.
actions/checkout@v7 persists the job token by default. In lint, make test-helm runs scripts/test-helm.sh from the checked-out repository, so repository-controlled code can read the persisted contents: read token.
The publish job's packages: write token is not used by repository-controlled commands. Its later steps validate Cargo.toml, authenticate Helm, and package and push the chart. None needs Git authentication.

Do not validate an existing PVC against accessModes.
signatures.persistence.accessModes configures only a chart-managed PVC. This condition also checks it when existingClaim is set.
A deployment with an existing RWX claim and multiple replicas therefore fails unless the user changes an unrelated value. Skip this access-mode check when existingClaim is set.

Require the configured Secret without requiring both keys.
The chart always enables EXAV_AUTO_UPDATE. If the Secret is absent, both optional references leave the environment variables unset. exav then waits for its startup timeout, loads the built-in database, and exits because no real signature database is available. This delays a misspelled Secret failure.
The chart permits a valid Secret to contain only one of the two keys, so both key references must remain optional. Add a required envFrom.secretRef to validate Secret existence.

Kubernetes official documentation env takes precedence over envFrom duplicate environment variable names
💡 Result:
<search_synthesis>
In Kubernetes, environment variables defined in the env field take precedence over those defined in the envFrom field when there are duplicate variable names [1][2]. While the official Kubernetes documentation explicitly states that both env and envFrom override environment variables specified in the container image [3][4][5], it does not explicitly document the internal precedence between env and envFrom itself [2]. However, it is widely established in practice and community discussions that variables explicitly defined in the env list take precedence over those injected via envFrom [1][2]. Additionally, within the envFrom field itself, if a key exists in multiple sources (e.g., multiple ConfigMaps or Secrets), the value associated with the last source listed in the configuration takes precedence [1]. It is important to note that the final set of environment variables can also be influenced by mutating admission webhooks, which may modify the Pod specification before it is persisted [2].

Force reserved environment variables to safe values. extraEnvFrom can provide these names because Helm cannot inspect referenced ConfigMap or Secret data. Add fixed false values to env; Kubernetes gives explicit env entries precedence over envFrom.

A true EXAV_ALLOW_SHUTDOWN lets any reachable client terminate the daemon. With the http-scan feature, a true EXAV_ALLOW_HTTP_SCAN lets any reachable client make the daemon fetch an arbitrary HTTP(S) URL.
