Research direction

Start with the issue’s references to packages.drupal.org and wpackagist.org, and review how Composer packages from packagist.org are currently handled. Define the repository support and advisory coverage needed; done means vulnerable versions from the additional repositories can be identified for GitHub projects.

Description

If I understand correctly, you currently only review advisories about Composer packages from https://packagist.org/.
Are there plans to add support for other well known Composer repositories like https://packages.drupal.org/ or https://wpackagist.org?

This could allow warning GitHub projects using vulnerable versions of packages from these repositories.
