As a next step, let's filter everything from the table with a forall. That's because, when we get a type back from a validator with a forall in it, we have to treat it like a blob because it could be anything. All we know is that it exists, and folks will often call it an existential type. That means we can only pass the blob to functions that accept anything. Some examples are \x -> x (the identity function) and _ -> 5 (a function that returns 5). In our microservice, we're not going to get very far with either of those functions. The table now becomes:

Oh yes, https://github.com/dependabot/dependabot-core/issues/3253. I wouldn't go so far as saying it was locked because it was too uncivil, mostly just because "additional commentary wasn't adding value" ;)

Your read on the situation is spot on, and no, it doesn't look like it's been "fixed" (mostly because "fixing it would re-introduce the same potential vulnerability).

Storybook is great and all, but these days nearly every Dependabot alert I get is about a sub-dependency of Storybook. Since Dependabot doesn't currently allow you to ignore dev dependencies and only check production dependencies [0], this makes Storybook a Big Noise Generator and every time I dismiss another alert from it, I can't help but wonder if there's a better option out there.

P.S. While this being a powerful and handy tool itself, it is only a part of Dependabot’s capabilities. If you are interested, you’ll find more about them in the GitHub docs.

Hello! I'm using Helm in K8s and curious if there is a solution that could keep tabs on the deployed chart dependency versions and either alert us when something is out of date or when a new release is available. Does this exist? I was thinking something like Dependabot or Renovate, but neither seems to be able to manage this.

An important point is that this kind of metadata often needs to be accessible from outside the build system itself. You need that for example in order to integration with renovate-bot or github's dependabot, to check your dependencies against CVEs, to build SBOMs and various other additional tasks that are not part of the build itself, but related to the build's metadata. This is all functionality I don't want to reimplement, I want to use what's already out there. And for that the build system needs to have some minimum amount of compatibility with existing standard metadata files like pom.xml or build.gradle

To avoid any potential data breaches, it is recommended that users upgrade to a patched version of MinIO (RELEASE.2023-03-20T20-16-18Z) and integrate security tooling such as docker-cli-scan or use Github’s built-in monitoring for supply chain vulnerabilities, which already contains a record referencing this vulnerability.

I recognize that it does not handle chart updates, but it's might still ease the burden of applying minor releases easily etc. For the chart versions themselves, unfortunately dependabot does not support this and will not, but something like renovatebot does. Could be worth looking into as a dual approach

Disclosure: Renovate author

Renovate is indeed AGPL, but if you're just running it as a CLI, do you think there's anything to "watch out for"? It does not make any project you run it against AGPL, that's for sure.

Also you should be aware that dependabot-core, which dependabot-gitlab wraps, is not technically Open Source at all: https://github.com/dependabot/dependabot-core/blob/main/LICE...

Waiting for Yarn v2/v3 support in Dependabot has been a saga.
