Outdated Dependency Or Vulnerability Alert Disabled

Sigma Rules

View Source
Summary
This detection rule monitors organizations using GitHub for critical changes in their security settings related to Dependabot alerts. Dependabot is a tool used for identifying and alerting about insecure dependencies in a repository. The rule is triggered when an organization owner disables Dependabot alerts for private repositories or stops security updates for all repositories. Disabling these alerts poses an increased security risk as it allows potentially vulnerable dependencies to remain unaddressed. The alert focuses on actions in the GitHub audit logs that signify these changes, specifically actions associated with disabling Dependabot's functionalities. Monitoring these actions is crucial to ensure organizations remain vigilant against outdated dependencies that could lead to security vulnerabilities.
