Viewing and updating Dependabot alerts

La pestaña de Las alertas del dependabot de tu repositorio lista todas lasLas alertas del dependabot abiertas y cerradas, así como las Actualizaciones de seguridad del dependabot correspondientes. Puedes filtrar las alertas por paquete, ecosistema o manifiesto. You can sort the list of alerts, and you can click into specific alerts for more details. You can also dismiss or reopen alerts, either one by one or by selecting multiple alerts at once. For more information, see "About Las alertas del dependabot."

Puedes habilitar las alertas de seguridad automáticas para cualquier repositorio que utilice Las alertas del dependabot y la gráfica de dependencias. Para obtener más información, consulta la sección "Acerca de las Actualizaciones de seguridad del dependabot".

Acerca de las actualizaciones para las dependencias vulnerables en tu repositorio

GitHub Enterprise Cloud generates Las alertas del dependabot when we detect that your codebase is using dependencies with known security risks. Para los repositorios en donde se habilitan las Actualizaciones de seguridad del dependabot cuando GitHub Enterprise Cloud detecta una dependencia vulnerable en la rama predeterminada, Dependabot crea una solicitud de cambios para arreglarla. La solicitud de extracción mejorará la dependencia a la versión segura mínima que sea posible y necesaria para evitar la vulnerabilidad.

Puedes clasificar y filtrar las Las alertas del dependabot con los menús desplegables en la pestaña de Las alertas del dependabot o tecleando filtros tales como pares de key:value en la barra de búsqueda. Los filtros disponibles son los de repositorio (pro ejemplo, repo:my-repository), paquete (por ejemplo, package:django), ecosistema (por ejemplo, ecosystem:npm), manifiesto (por ejemplo, manifest:webwolf/pom.xml), estado (por ejemplo, is:open) y si la asesoría tiene un parche (por ejemplo, has: patch).

Each Dependabot alert has a unique numeric identifier and the Las alertas del dependabot tab lists an alert for every detected vulnerability or malware. Las Las alertas del dependabot tradicionales agrupan vulnerabilidades por dependencia y generan una sola alerta por dependencia. Si navegas a una alerta tradicional del Dependabot, se te redirigirá a una pestaña de Las alertas del dependabot filtradas para este paquete.

About the detection of calls to vulnerable functions

When Dependabot tells you that your repository uses a vulnerable dependency, you need to determine what the vulnerable functions are and check whether you are using them. Once you have this information, then you can determine how urgently you need to upgrade to a secure version of the dependency.

For supported languages, Dependabot automatically detects whether you use a vulnerable function and adds the label "Vulnerable call" to affected alerts. You can use this information in the Las alertas del dependabot view to triage and prioritize remediation work more effectively.

You can filter the view to show only alerts where Dependabot detected at least one call to a vulnerable function using the has:vulnerable-calls filter in the search field.

For alerts where vulnerable calls are detected, the alert details page shows additional information:

• One or more code blocks showing where the function is used.
• An annotation listing the function itself, with a link to the line where the function is called.

For more information, see "Reviewing and fixing alerts" below.

1. En GitHub.com, visita la página principal del repositorio.
2. Debajo de tu nombre de repositorio, da clic en Seguridad.
3. En la barra lateral de seguridad, da clic en Las alertas del dependabot. Si no encuentras esta opción, significa que no tienes acceso a las alertas de seguridad y necesitas que te lo otorguen. Para obtener más información, consulta la sección "Administrar los ajustes de seguridad y análisis de tu repositorio".
4. Opcionalmente, para filtrar alertas, selecciona el menú desplegable de Repositorio, l Paquete, Ecosistema o Manifiesto y luego haz clic en el filtro que te gustaría aplicar. También puedes teclear filtros en la barra de búsqueda. Por ejemplo, ecosystem:npm o has:patch. To sort alerts, select the Sort dropdown menu then click the option that you would like to sort by.
5. Click the alert that you would like to view.

Reviewing and fixing alerts

It’s important to ensure that all of your dependencies are clean of any security weaknesses. When Dependabot discovers vulnerabilities or malware in your dependencies, you should assess your project’s level of exposure and determine what remediation steps to take to secure your application.

If a patched version of the dependency is available, you can generate a Dependabot pull request to update this dependency directly from a Dependabot alert. If you have Actualizaciones de seguridad del dependabot enabled, the pull request may be linked will in the Dependabot alert.

In cases where a patched version is not available, or you can’t update to the secure version, Dependabot shares additional information to help you determine next steps. When you click through to view a Dependabot alert, you can see the full details of the security advisory for the dependency including the affected functions. You can then check whether your code calls the impacted functions. This information can help you further assess your risk level, and determine workarounds or if you’re able to accept the risk represented by the security advisory.

For supported languages, Dependabot detects calls to vulnerable functions for you. When you view an alert labeled as "Vulnerable call", the details include the name of the function and a link to the code that calls it. Often you will be able to take decisions based on this information, without exploring further.

Fixing vulnerable dependencies

1. Ver los detalles de una alerta. For more information, see "Viewing Las alertas del dependabot" (above).

2. If you have Actualizaciones de seguridad del dependabot enabled, there may be a link to a pull request that will fix the dependency. Alternatively, you can click Create Dependabot security update at the top of the alert details page to create a pull request.

3. Optionally, if you do not use Actualizaciones de seguridad del dependabot, you can use the information on the page to decide which version of the dependency to upgrade to and create a pull request to update the dependency to a secure version.

4. Cuando estés listo para actualizar tu dependencia y resolver la vulnerabilidad, fusiona la solicitud de extracción.

   Each pull request raised by Dependabot includes information on commands you can use to control Dependabot. For more information, see "Managing pull requests for dependency updates."

Dismissing Las alertas del dependabot

If you schedule extensive work to upgrade a dependency, or decide that an alert does not need to be fixed, you can dismiss the alert. Dismissing alerts that you have already assessed makes it easier to triage new alerts as they appear.

1. Ver los detalles de una alerta. For more information, see "Viewing vulnerable dependencies" (above).
2. Select the "Dismiss" dropdown, and click a reason for dismissing the alert. Unfixed dismissed alerts can be reopened later.

Descartar varias alertas al mismo tiempo

1. View the open Las alertas del dependabot. For more information, see "Viewing Las alertas del dependabot".
2. Optionally, filter the list of alerts by selecting a dropdown menu, then clicking the filter that you would like to apply. También puedes teclear filtros en la barra de búsqueda.
3. To the left of each alert title, select the alerts that you want to dismiss.
4. Optionally, at the top of the list of alerts, select all alerts on the page.
5. Select the "Dismiss alerts" dropdown, and click a reason for dismissing the alerts.

Viewing and updating closed alerts

1. En GitHub.com, visita la página principal del repositorio.
2. Debajo de tu nombre de repositorio, da clic en Seguridad.
3. En la barra lateral de seguridad, da clic en Las alertas del dependabot. Si no encuentras esta opción, significa que no tienes acceso a las alertas de seguridad y necesitas que te lo otorguen.
