Holy shit, GitHub is becoming a CVE authority which will allow filing for CVE numbers directly from the web UI.

Also the new security advisory workflow is looking *sweet*!!
Our mission is to build a global platform for developer collaboration. But that platform needs to be one that all of us can use to secure the world’s software, together.

10 years ago I discovered the amazing @semmle technology and team, I knew they would make a difference in the industry. 1 year ago I was excited to join them, and today I am even more excited by the huge step we are taking by joining @github https://t.co/YKHOcRd7cD #securecode

What a gr8 move.

I hear from ppl all the time that tell me how hard it is to get a CVE. Having @github as a CNA is critically important. https://t.co/5sGHPU0R2d
We are @github now! \o/ https://t.co/u3N5ifHbAP
— Nico Waisman (@nicowaisman) September 18, 2019
@github would not issue CVE's for Microsoft applications as @Microsoft is already a CNA that issues their own. GitHub is allowed to issue CVE's for reported vulnerabilities assuming the vendor in question is not already a CNA (as far as I understand).

It says a lot about Github and by extension Microsoft that the overwhelming response to this announcement is positive. https://t.co/R00FBCXxCG
— Corey Quinn (@QuinnyPig) September 19, 2019
As for volume... just do a search for "fix buffer overflows" or "fix XSS" in issues and imagine them all having a nicely labelled CVE. It's an exciting time to be alive.

Apart from the news about acquisition of @Semmle which is a market leader in Variant Analysis, GitHub clearly sees the big picture of Application Security. Slow clap ? https://t.co/0X0A9itJnW

> GitHub ... is now a CVE Numbering Authority. ..Maintainers will be able to report vulnerabilities...GitHub will assign IDs & add [them] to the National Vulnerability Database.
— Rijnard van Tonder (@rvtond) September 18, 2019
Sounds like there'll be an influx of CVEs now. What "CVE" means is probably going to change a bit ?
Incredible, industry-shifting work at @github & @Semmle in helping the entire software supply chain detect, eradicate, and prevent entire classes of security vulnerabilities.
— Katie Moussouris (@k8em0) September 18, 2019
Honestly this has me hopeful that finally, we may see certain classes of bugs eradicated in my lifetime. https://t.co/sa234NzK7h

A warm welcome to Oege and the rest of @Semmle! This really confirms the value of treating code as data, and on behalf of the Semantic Code team, I can't wait to see what we can build together! (And I'm also excited to have more Oxonians on the team ?) https://t.co/XKLDEWCYuC

Big congrats to the @Semmle on their acquisition by Github. Great code = secure code. This is a?match. Congrats @oegerikus and team! https://t.co/nqWgxChn0o
