   # Rationale for this change
   
   The stale-bot workflow (`.github/workflows/stale.yml`) configures the issue 
side
   incorrectly:
   
   ```yaml
   stale-issue-label: 'stale,security'
   exempt-issue-labels: 'not-stale'
   ```
   
   `stale-issue-label` takes a **single** label and `actions/stale` applies it
   verbatim (it is not comma-split, unlike the `*-labels` inputs). So instead of
   tagging stale issues with `stale`, the workflow tags them with one bogus 
label
   literally named `stale,security`. That breaks the workflow's own
   `stale-issue-message` (which tells users to add `not-stale`, keyed on the 
stale
   state) and anything else that relies on a plain `stale` label.
   
   It also leaves `security` out of `exempt-issue-labels`, so `security`-labeled
   issues are still marked stale and auto-closed after 180+14 days. This is
   inconsistent with the **PR** side of the same file, which already exempts
   `security`:
   
   ```yaml
   stale-pr-label: 'stale'
   exempt-pr-labels: 'not-stale,security'
   ```
   
   The value was introduced in #3125, which changed `stale-issue-label: 
'stale'` to
   `'stale,security'` in the same change that added
   `exempt-pr-labels: 'not-stale,security'`, i.e. `security` was meant as an
   exemption on both sides but landed in the wrong key on the issue side.
   
   This change makes the issue side mirror the (already correct) PR side:
   
   ```yaml
   stale-issue-label: 'stale'
   exempt-issue-labels: 'not-stale,security'
   ```
   
   ## Are these changes tested?
   
   There is no test harness for GitHub Actions workflow semantics in this repo, 
so
   this was validated by inspection against the pinned action's contract and 
source:
   
   - Against `actions/stale`'s `action.yml` at the pinned SHA
     (`eb5cf3af3ac0a1aa4c9c45633dd1ae542a27a899`, v10.3.0): `stale-issue-label` 
is
     documented as "The label to apply when an issue is stale" (single value,
     default `Stale`), while `exempt-issue-labels` documents "Separate multiple
     labels with commas". In the action source, the stale label is applied 
verbatim
     and only the exempt labels are comma-split, confirming both effects above.
   - `stale-issue-label: 'stale'` matches the PR side of this same file and the
     Java `apache/iceberg` `stale.yml`.
   - Repo linters pass on the changed file (`check-yaml`, `codespell`,
     trailing-whitespace, end-of-file-fixer).
   
   ## Are there any user-facing changes?
   
   No. This only affects the repository's stale-bot automation (issue labeling 
and
   which issues are exempt from auto-close). No changelog label needed.
