Automatically scan pull requests for vulnerabilities using GitHub's AI security tools, create tracked issues for findings, and alert the security team.

Workflow Steps

1

GitHub Actions

Trigger security scan on PR

Configure a GitHub Actions workflow that runs GitHub Security Lab's Taskflow Agent on every pull request. Set up the workflow to scan for auth bypasses, IDORs, and token leaks using the open source framework.

2

GitHub Security Lab

Analyze code for vulnerabilities

The Taskflow Agent performs AI-powered static analysis on the PR code, identifying high-impact security vulnerabilities including authentication bypasses, insecure direct object references, and exposed tokens or secrets.

3

GitHub Issues

Create security issue for findings

When vulnerabilities are detected, automatically create a GitHub issue with severity labels, detailed findings, code locations, and recommended fixes. Include CVSS scores and remediation priority.

4

Slack

Send security alert to team

Use GitHub's webhook integration to post critical security findings to your team's Slack channel, including issue link, vulnerability type, and affected files for immediate attention.
