GitHub Launches Private Security Advisories for Enterprise Internal Packages
GitHub made innersource security advisories generally available on July 8, giving enterprise teams a private channel to disclose vulnerabilities in internal packages without exposing them publicly. The feature, part of GitHub Advanced Security, lets enterprises publish advisories scoped exclusively to their own repositories via a new REST API. Once an advisory is filed, Dependabot automatically notifies affected internal repositories and opens pull requests to upgrade vulnerable dependencies where a fix exists. Previously, teams had no scalable way to handle internal CVEs, often resorting to Slack messages or spreadsheets that failed to reach all downstream consumers. The capability is limited to GitHub Advanced Security enterprise customers and depends on teams actively filing advisories to be effective.
