Forwarded from Vulnerability Management and more
#GitHub recently introduced some great initiatives to improve the security of open-source products and libraries. They provided free access to CodeQL code analysis solution, created the global security research community GitHub Security Lab, became the CVE Numbering Authority (CNA) and provided a new way to apply for the CVE id directly from the GitHub interface. Moreover, they will automatically inform the affected projects if a vulnerability is found in some dependencies and will even make a pull request to fix the problem! And they will also scan for leaked credential tokens. Lots of great stuff!
GitHub made their own CVE-based Vulnerability Database with good mapping to commits and affected packages. The only thing is missing there - EXPLOITs.
And now the #Vulners Team makes it even better! Now you can search for GitHub advisories at Vulners and see the links to exploits in results. For example, for CVE-2019-13234. Cool, right? 😏
