How to reproduce
Try to upload an artifact located in /root/

[l0b0]

I tried to sudo chmod --recursive 0755 /redacted the relevant directories, but even then actions/upload-artifact@v3 fails:

EACCES: permission denied, lstat '/redacted'

Is there some SELinux rule I have to disable or something to be able to read files? I should be able to list directories rather than files, right?

v4 has shipped officially today and recommend switching over as this should be fixed. https://github.blog/changelog/2023-12-14-github-actions-artifacts-v4-is-now-generally-available/

v1-v3 used to use stat and/or lstat to do a bunch of calculations to file sizes and other things but that is no longer the case

[MattiaFailla]

@konradpabjan I can confirm this has been fixed in the new version.

Hello, I still have this problem with v4, @MattiaFailla please was this the same intent of your?

Note: using act locally it works fine (e.g. act -P ubuntu-latest=quay.io/jamezp/act-maven --artifact-server-path tmp)
