GitHub adds structured forms for private vulnerability reports
Original: Structured forms for private vulnerability reports
GitHub has introduced structured forms for private vulnerability reporting, giving security researchers a standard template when disclosing issues to maintainers privately. The change aims to make reports more consistent and actionable, replacing free-text-only disclosures. Security teams and open source maintainers are weighing what the format means for handling incoming reports.
Why now: GitHub's new feature changes how security vulnerabilities are privately disclosed, which matters to researchers and maintainers.
