Question

A large platform team shares a monorepo across three feature squads. A CodeQL scan surfaces a high-severity SQL injection alert in a module that all three squads modify. The security manager wants a single accountable owner to drive remediation while still allowing other engineers to comment, share findings, and track the discussion directly on the alert. Which approach best supports this collaboration model using native GitHub code scanning capabilities?

Accepted Answer

Assign the alert to a specific engineer and use the alert's comment thread so collaborators can discuss the finding while ownership stays clear.

Answer

Dismiss the alert as "used in tests" so it stops appearing, then coordinate the fix over email until the module is patched.

Answer

Create three separate issues, one per squad, and delete the code scanning alert to avoid duplicate tracking.

Answer

Convert the alert into a security advisory draft so the squads can collaborate privately before any fix is written.
