Fix and disclose a security vulnerability
Using repository security advisories to privately fix a reported vulnerability and get a CVE.Start learning path- 1Overview
About coordinated disclosure of security vulnerabilities
Vulnerability disclosure is a coordinated effort between security reporters and repository maintainers. - 2Overview
About the GitHub Advisory database
The GitHub Advisory Database contains a list of known security vulnerabilities and malware, grouped in two categories: GitHub-reviewed advisories and unreviewed advisories. - 3Overview
About global security advisories
Global security advisories live in the GitHub Advisory Database, a collection of CVEs and GitHub-originated advisories affecting the open source world. You can contribute to improving global security advisories. - 4Overview
About repository security advisories
You can use repository security advisories to privately discuss, fix, and publish information about security vulnerabilities in your repository. - 5How-to guide
Best practices for writing repository security advisories
When you create or edit security advisories, the information you provide is easier for other users to understand when you specify the ecosystem, package name, and affected versions using the standard formats. - 6How-to guide
Privately reporting a security vulnerability
Some public repositories configure security advisories so that anyone can report security vulnerabilities directly and privately to the maintainers. - 7How-to guide
Managing privately reported security vulnerabilities
Repository maintainers can manage security vulnerabilities that have been privately reported to them by security reseachers for repositories where private vulnerability reporting is enabled. - 8How-to guide
Configuring private vulnerability reporting for a repository
Owners and administrators of public repositories can allow security researchers to report vulnerabilities securely in the repository by enabling private vulnerability reporting. - 9How-to guide
Configuring private vulnerability reporting for an organization
Organization owners and security managers can allow security researchers to report vulnerabilities securely in repositories within the organization by enabling private vulnerability reporting for all its public repositories. - 10How-to guide
Creating a repository security advisory
You can create a draft security advisory to privately discuss and fix a security vulnerability in your open source project. - 11How-to guide
Adding a collaborator to a repository security advisory
You can add other users or teams to collaborate on a security advisory with you. - 12How-to guide
Collaborating in a temporary private fork to resolve a repository security vulnerability
You can create a temporary private fork to privately collaborate on fixing a security vulnerability in your repository. - 13How-to guide
Publishing a repository security advisory
You can publish a security advisory to alert your community about a security vulnerability in your project. - 14How-to guide
Editing a repository security advisory
You can edit the metadata and description for a repository security advisory if you need to update details or correct errors. - 15How-to guide
Withdrawing a repository security advisory
You can withdraw a repository security advisory that you've published. - 16How-to guide
Removing a collaborator from a repository security advisory
When you remove a collaborator from a repository security advisory, they lose read and write access to the security advisory's discussion and metadata.
Code security learning paths
Get notifications for insecure dependencies
Set up Dependabot to alert you to new vulnerabilities or malware in your dependencies.
Get pull requests to update your vulnerable dependencies
Set up Dependabot to create pull requests when new vulnerabilities are reported.
Keep your dependencies up-to-date
Use Dependabot to check for new releases and create pull requests to update your dependencies.
Scan for secrets
Set up secret scanning to guard against accidental check-ins of tokens, passwords, and other secrets to your repository.
Run code scanning with GitHub Actions
Check your default branch and every pull request to keep vulnerabilities and errors out of your repository.
Run CodeQL code scanning in your CI
Set up CodeQL within your existing CI and upload results to GitHub code scanning.
Integrate with code scanning
Upload code analysis results from third-party systems to GitHub using SARIF.
End-to-end supply chain
How to think about securing your user accounts, your code, and your build process.
