The GitHub Advisory Database now ingests malware advisories from the OpenSSF malicious-packages repository, significantly expanding the breadth of malware data available to you through Dependabot alerts.
CodeQL 2.26.1 improves analysis accuracy and framework coverage
CodeQL is the static analysis engine behind GitHub code scanning , which finds and remediates security issues in your code. We’ve recently released CodeQL 2.26.1 , which improves framework coverage for Go, Java/Kotlin, and JavaScript/TypeScript, and reduces false positives in Rust analysis.
Restricting npm bypass-2FA granular access tokens
npm granular access tokens (GATs) configured to bypass 2FA can no longer perform sensitive account, org, and package management actions. These now require an interactive 2FA challenge, closing one of the largest credential-based attack surfaces on the registry. This only impacts npm granular access tokens.
Customize code scanning default setup at scale
You can now apply your own configuration file to code scanning default setup, using the new github-codeql-config-file repository property. This gives you control over how CodeQL scans your code for security vulnerabilities, whether that’s on one repository or across your whole organization.
Customize Dependabot pull request branch names
You can now customize the branch names Dependabot creates for pull requests. New pull-request-branch-name options in .github/dependabot.yml let you set a prefix and maximum length, choose segment and word separators, set letter case, or define a custom template using placeholders.
Code coverage automatic enablement in Code Quality settings
We’re making code coverage setup faster and simpler. You’ll now see a new option in your repository’s Code Quality settings that lets GitHub generate your coverage workflow automatically with AI.
