Introduces an Artifact-Integrity check to verify authenticity of release artifacts using checksums or signatures.
Helps prevent tampered or malicious distributions in the software supply chain.
What kind of change does this PR introduce?
What is the current behavior?
Scorecard does not evaluate whether release artifacts include integrity verification mechanisms such as checksums or signatures. This leaves a gap in detecting risks related to tampered or malicious release artifacts.
What is the new behavior (if this is a feature change)?
This PR introduces a new check Artifact-Integrity that:
Analyzes release assets for integrity verification files (e.g., checksums, signatures, provenance)
Correlates verification files with binary artifacts
Applies recency-based weighting to prioritize recent releases
Scores projects based on the proportion of releases that provide integrity guarantees
Returns inconclusive results when no analyzable releases are found
Tests for the changes have been added (for bug fixes/features)
