Posted by Kaylin Trychon, Google Open Source Security Team We recently pledged to provide $100 million to support third-party foundations that manage open source security priorities and help fix vulnerabilities. As part of this commitment, we are excited to announce our support of the Open Source Technology Improvement Fund (OSTIF) to improve security of eight open-source projects. Google's support will allow OSTIF to launch the Managed Audit Program (MAP), which will expand in-depth security reviews to critical projects vital to the open source ecosystem. The eight libraries, frameworks and apps that were selected for this round are those that would benefit the most from security improvements and make the largest impact on the open-source ecosystem that relies on them. The projects include:
Git - de facto version control software used in modern DevOps. Lodash - a modern JavaScript utility library with over 200 functions to facilitate web development, can be found in most environments that support JavaScript, which is most of the world wide web. Laravel - a php web application framework that is used by many modern, full-stack web applications, including integrations with Google Cloud. Slf4j - a logging facade for various Java logging frameworks. Jackson-core & Jackson-databind - a JSON for Java, Streaming API, and extra shared components and the base for Jackson data-bind package. Httpcomponents-core & Httpcomponents-client - these projects are responsible for creating and maintaining a toolset of low-level Java components focused on HTTP and associated protocols. We are excited to help OSTIF build a safer open source environment for everyone. If you are interested in getting involved or learning more
