    While I think the major problem is how the https://github.com/triat/terraform-security-scan action works in that it compiles tfsec from scratch on each run. There is a major issue to me with how the tfsec team manages their project it seems like instead of releasing new versions of their tool they will go back and retag new code. This has introduced issues where the tfsec will just randomly fail one day because of a bug, we've had it happen about 3 times in the last four months.
