Dependabot Adds Default Package Cooldown
GitHub Changeloghigh confidence
Why it matters
- →The cooldown reduces the risk of integrating compromised updates immediately after release.
- →Developers maintain control over update timing, balancing security and flexibility.
- →This change enhances the security posture of projects using Dependabot.
GitHub has updated Dependabot to include a default three-day cooldown period for version updates, reducing the risk of supply chain attacks. This new feature allows time for any issues with new releases to be identified before they are automatically integrated into projects. Security updates will still be processed immediately to ensure critical fixes are not delayed. Developers have the option to adjust or disable this cooldown through configuration settings. The update applies to all supported ecosystems on GitHub and will be included in GitHub Enterprise Server 3.23.
