/ 1 min read
🔍 GitHub launches CodeQL Community Packs to enhance code analysis. The new CodeQL Community Packs provide an expanded set of queries and models aimed at improving code analysis for security researchers and developers. These packs include model packs for Taint Tracking, query packs for identifying vulnerabilities, and library packs for comprehensive analysis. Designed to reduce false negatives, the packs are particularly beneficial for security engineers conducting deep-dive reviews. The GitHub Security Lab has successfully utilized these packs in various projects, demonstrating their effectiveness in mapping out codebases and identifying untrusted data entry points. Community contributions are encouraged to further enhance the packs, fostering collaboration in securing open-source software.
