Suggest Adoption of Scorecard GitHub Action #373

Open diogoteles08 opened 1 year ago

diogoteles08 commented 1 year ago

Hey, I'm Diogo and I've raised the issues #357 and #365 contributing with some security enhancements. I'll happily continue contributing with such improvements (it's literally my job, see my profile), but this time I come to suggest the tool that I used myself to find those security issues.

I'd like to suggest that the project add the OpenSSF Scorecard Action. The OpenSSF Scorecard uses GitHub's public API to gather public informations about your project and runs a sort of "meta-analysis" of the project's security posture. The Action then populates the project's Security Panel with possible improvements to its security posture. It's specially helpful to ensure you won't regress on the security measures you have already adopted. Additionally, the tool integrates with the OSV Scanner, which evaluates a project's transitive dependencies looking for known vulnerabilities.

When working on the Security enhancements pointed by Scorecard, you're also able to apply for the OpenSSF's Secure Open Source Rewards program, which financially rewards developers for improving the security of important open source projects

This tool is developed by the OpenSSF in partnership with GitHub and it's already been adopted by 1800+ projects, including TensorflowPyTorchAngular, and Flutter.

If you're interested, let me know and I'll send a PR!

Hey! This issue/PR has been idle for quite some time. Do you plan on considering this suggestion? If not, I'll probably wait up to 2 more months and close the issue.

Thanks!
