Deleting a repository security advisory

You can delete a repository security advisory that you've published by contacting Support.

Who can use this feature?

Repository owners, organization owners, security managers, and users with the admin role can contact GitHub Support to delete a published security advisory.

Note

This article applies to editing repository-level advisories as an owner of a public repository.

Users who are not repository owners can contribute to global security advisories in the GitHub Advisory Database at github.com/advisories. Edits to global advisories will not change or affect how the advisory appears on the repository. For more information, see Editing security advisories in the GitHub Advisory Database.

If you publish a security advisory in error, you can delete the security advisory by contacting us through the GitHub Support portal.
