This repository holds the GitHub Action for govulncheck.
Govulncheck provides a low-noise, reliable way for Go users to learn about known vulnerabilities that may affect their dependencies. See details on Go's support for vulnerability management.
The govulncheck GitHub Action is currently experimental and is under active development.
To use the govulncheck GitHub Action add the following step to your workflow:
- id: govulncheck uses: golang/govulncheck-action@v1
By default the govulncheck Github Action will run with the latest version of Go and analyze all packages in the provided Go module. Assuming you have the latest Go version installed locally, this is equivalent to running the following on your command line:
$ govulncheck ./...
To specify a specific Go version, directory in which to run govulncheck, or package pattern, use the following syntax:
- id: govulncheck uses: golang/govulncheck-action@v1 with: go-version-input: <your-Go-version> go-package: <your-package-pattern>
For example, the code snippet below can be used to run govulncheck against a repository on every push:
on: [push] jobs: govulncheck_job: runs-on: ubuntu-latest name: Run govulncheck steps: - id: govulncheck uses: golang/govulncheck-action@v1 with: go-version-input: 1.20.6 go-package: ./...
govulncheck Github Action accepts several other optional inputs:
work-dir: directory in which to run govulncheck, default '.' repo-checkout: checkout the repository, default true check-latest: check for the latest Go version, default false go-version-file: go.mod or go.work file specifying Go version, default '' output-format: the format of govulncheck output ('text', 'json', or 'sarif'), default 'text' output-file: the file to which the output is redirected, default '' (no redirection)
The precedence for inputs go-version-input, go-version-file, and check-latest specifying Go version is inherited from actions/setup-go.
The govulncheck-action follows the exit codes of govulncheck command. Specifying the output format ‘json’ or ‘sarif’ will return success even if there are some vulnerabilities detected. See here for more information.
When a vulnerability is found with ‘text’ output format, an error will be displayed for that GitHub job with information about the vulnerability and how to fix it. For example:
