Research direction

Review the Drupal advisory database and the OSV ingestion context linked in the issue, then trace how GitHub currently consumes OSV advisories. Determine whether production ingestion is sufficient for GitHub tools such as Dependabot; done means documenting the required next step or confirming that no further integration work is needed.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

We've been working with the Drupal community and OSV team to have Drupal advisories published in OSV format and ingested into osv.dev, with the database living here: https://github.com/DrupalSecurityTeam/drupal-advisory-database

We've recently gotten the database ingested into the test instance of osv.dev, and plan to have it moved to production ideally at the start of December. The database has been ingested into osv.dev since December 2025

I wanted to check if there is anything else needed to have GitHub use these advisories for tools like dependabot, or if having the advisories ingested into osv.dev is enough.

Note that while the database is not currently in production, we believe the advisories are stable and suitable to be used in production (the database is now in production)
