This is a new major version of the Dependency Review Action which updates the runtime to node24. This requires a minimum Actions Runner version v2.327.1 to run.
This feature release contains a couple of notable changes:
There is a new configuration option show_patched_versions which will add a column to the output, showing the fix version of each vulnerable dependency. Thanks @felickz!
Runs which do not display OpenSSF scorecards no longer fetch scorecard information; previously it was fetched regardless of whether or not it was displayed, causing unneccessary slowness. Great catch @jantiebot!
There are a couple of fixes to purl parsing which should improve match accuracy for allow-package-dependency lists, including case (in)sensitivity and url-encoded namespaces Thanks @juxtin!
This is a bugfix release that updates a number of upstream dependencies and includes a fix for the earlier feature that detected oversized summaries and upload them as artifacts, which could occasionally crash the action.
We have also updated the release process to use a long-lived v4branch for the action, instead of a force-pushed tag, which aligns better with git branching strategies; the change should be transparent to end users.
