[BUG] Action doesn't work when using a COPY heredoc containing "*"?

Version

redhat-actions/buildah-build@v2

Describe the bug

I have a Containerfile that is using a COPY command with a heredoc:

FROM ubuntu

COPY <<EOF /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/excludes
# Drop all man pages
path-exclude=/usr/share/man/*
# Drop all translations
path-exclude=/usr/share/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/*.mo
# Drop all documentation ...
path-exclude=/usr/share/doc/*
# ... except copyright files ...
path-include=/usr/share/doc/*/copyright
# ... and Debian changelogs for native & non-native packages
path-include=/usr/share/doc/*/changelog.*
EOF

This fails to build with the following GitHub actions workflow configuration:

name: Build

on:
  push:
    branches: [ main ]

jobs:
  build_container:
    runs-on: ubuntu-20.04
    env:
      REGISTRY: ghcr.io
      IMAGE: ${{ github.repository }}    
    steps:
      - name: Checkout repo
        uses: actions/checkout@v4
        with:
          fetch-depth: 0
      - name: Build container image
        id: build_image
        uses: redhat-actions/buildah-build@v2
        with:

          containerfiles: Containerfile
          layers: false

The error in the actions log is:

This builds fine using buildah on the command-line:

🐟  ❯ buildah bud --format oci --tls-verify=true --layers=false

I am unsure what the cause is here. The only issue I could find that might be remotely relevant was https://github.com/containers/buildah/issues/5391. However I am not knowledgeable on buildah and its internals, just an end-user of the GitHub action.

If it helps, I create a repo with the Containerfile and workflow action that reliably reproduces this issue:
