**Remediation steps**
- Publish the release.
- Generate a signing key.
- Download the release as an archive locally.
- Sign the release archive with this key (should output a signature file).
- Attach the signature file next to the release archive.
- If the source is hosted on GitHub, check out the steps [here](https://wiki.debian.org/Creating%20signed%20GitHub%20releases).

In light of CVE-2024-3094, could the Signed-Releases remediation steps not encourage manual manipulation of the source code archives? :P

FWIW, I filed this feature request for SLSA folks five months ago. Earlier today, I stopped waiting and wrote this workflow using Sigstore instead.
