Repository security advisories

Use the REST API to view and manage repository security advisories.

Deprecation note: GitHub is deprecating repository security advisories in private repositories. As of 15th February 2024, you will no longer be able to create security advisories in private repositories.

This deprecation does not affect published security advisories on public repositories.

Formerly published advisories in private repositories will disappear. If you need to save previously published advisories, you can download them using the "List repository security advisories" endpoint.

Request a CVE for a repository security advisory

Works with GitHub Apps

If you want a CVE identification number for the security vulnerability in your project, and don't already have one, you can request a CVE identification number from GitHub. For more information see "Requesting a CVE identification number."

You may request a CVE for public repositories, but cannot do so for private repositories.

You must authenticate using an access token with the repo scope or repository_advisories:write permission to use this endpoint.

In order to request a CVE for a repository security advisory, you must be a security manager or administrator of that repository.
