AllStar: Continuous Security Policy Enforcement for GitHub Projects

Posted by Mike Maraya, Google Open Source Security Team 

As an active member of the open source software (OSS) community, Google recognizes the growing threat of software supply chain attacks against OSS we use and develop. Building on our efforts to improve OSS security with an end-to-end framework (SLSA), metrics (Scorecards), and coordinated vulnerability disclosure (guide), we are excited to announce Allstar.


Allstar is a GitHub app that continuously enforces security policy settings through selectable automated enforcement actions. Allstar is already filing and closing security issues for Envoy and GoogleContainerTools, with more organizations and repositories lined up. 

See the OpenSSF announcement for more information on Allstar.
