@magnusbaeck well spotted, seems like I have the rights to see that page so I didn't notice. How do we handle that? Should i add a short explanation on the security page? @fredjn

Even if the link in the PR worked for everyone I'm not sure it be a good fit for this page since it lists current problems (right?) while this page also should cover historical vulnerabilities? Unless we build something very complicated I think this list needs to be maintained by hand.

I get the 404 as well. Are the alerts still there? I seem to recall I've had access to the alerts page. (But perhaps that was through a screen share in a meeting.) There are a also 2 open issued filed by dependabot on the repository in question. I can't remember if these were related.

Probably only admin or simlar for the repo that can see it. Ok if I add a short description for now so that we get it published? @fredjn

From https://github.com/eiffel-community/simple-event-sender/settings/security_analysis

Dependabot and secret scanning alerts are only visible to people and teams that are given access by admins.

I don't think we can link to that page. So instead we need to change this to advise people to update to a certain version of simple-event-sender.
