Learn more about static analysis and how to use it for security research! In this blog post series, we will take a closer look at static analysis concepts, present GitHub’s static analysis tool CodeQL, and teach you how to leverage static analysis for security research by writing custom CodeQL queries.
These changes will improve the experience for custom query authors and enable better precision in some of our standard queries. Learn how to enable them for your custom queries.
Developers and compliance teams get a new SBOM generation tool for cloud repositories.
At approximately 05:00 UTC on March 24, out of an abundance of caution, we replaced our RSA SSH host key used to secure Git operations for GitHub.com.
Writing secure code is as much of an art as writing functional code, and it is the only way to write quality code. Learn how our Secure Code Game can provide you with hands-on training to spot and fix security issues in your code so that you can build a secure code mindset.
Learn about using GitHub Advanced Security alerts with vulnerability management tools. Check out the integrations and learn about how to get started.
On March 13, we will officially begin rolling out our initiative to require all developers who contribute code on GitHub.com to enable one or more forms of two-factor authentication (2FA) by the end of 2023. Read on to learn about what the process entails and how you can help secure the software supply chain with 2FA.
Multi-repository variant analysis lets you scale security research across thousands of repositories, giving you a powerful tool to find and respond to newly discovered vulnerabilities.
Learn how teams can leverage the power of GitHub Advanced Security’s code scanning and GitHub Actions to integrate the right security testing tools at the right time.
The GitHub Security Lab audited DataHub, an open source metadata platform, and discovered several vulnerabilities in the platform's authentication and authorization modules. These vulnerabilities could have enabled an attacker to bypass authentication and gain access to sensitive data stored on the platform.
Secret scanning alerts are now generally available for all public repositories. Admins can now turn on the alert experience with one click.
Learn how to enable developer productivity and collaboration while staying secure and compliant. Stay compliant without slowing down your business. From security to CI/CD, automate every step of your software workflow—so your developers can stay focused on what matters most: building.
CVE-2022-25664, a vulnerability in the Qualcomm Adreno GPU, can be used to leak large amounts of information to a malicious Android application. Learn more about how the vulnerability can be used to leak information in both the user space and kernel space level of pages, and how the GitHub Security Lab used the kernel space information leak to construct a KASLR bypass.
Learn about CodeQL's improved user experience and enhancements that let you scan new languages, detect new types of CWEs, and perform deeper analyses of your applications.
Git users are encouraged to upgrade to the latest version, especially if they use `git apply` or `git clone` against untrusted patches or repositories.
