Since our last pattern update, we’ve expanded secret scanning’s detection coverage with new partners, more patterns blocked by push protection by default, additional validity checks, and richer metadata for leaked secrets.

Detectors added

Secret scanning now automatically detects the following new secret types in your repositories. This release adds two new partners (Cloudsmith and Meraki), significantly expands GitLab token coverage, and adds detectors for Elastic, Slack, Supabase, DataDog, and VolcEngine.

Partner secrets are automatically reported to the secret issuer when found in public repositories through the secret scanning partnership program.

User secrets generate secret scanning alerts when found in public or private repositories.

Push protection defaults expanded

The following detectors are now included in push protection by default. Repositories with secret scanning enabled, including free public repositories, will have commits containing these secrets automatically blocked.

These patterns now support validity checks, so alerts tell you whether a leaked credential is still active and help you prioritize remediation.
