Copilot Autofix: found vulnerability is automatically fixed too
In one sentence Copilot Autofix in GitHub Advanced Security suggests and applies fixes for CodeQL-detected vulnerabilities directly in PRs, 3x faster than manual fixing.
Reading level
GitHub launches Copilot Autofix: when CodeQL finds a security vulnerability in code during a pull request, the AI does not just flag it but also proposes the corrected code to fix it. The developer can accept the fix with one click. In tests, this process is three times faster than manually correcting the vulnerability. It is the first time code security and AI integrate directly into the review workflow, making "found means fixed" a practical reality.
