It doesn't sound like there is anything you can or need to do with respect to these tokens (whether they were used to take action with elevated permissions is a different thing, but it doesn't sound like that was the case either)
- dundarious 4y agoIt seems like the appropriate thing to do would be to inform anyone who had tokens created during the affected time period, so they could assess if any of the permissions led to undesired changes. Instead of GitHub saying “we don’t have hard proof of anything bad happening” and waiting 3 months, just give the customer the time of relevant token creations.
- smarx007 4y agoThe email listed the apps that issued tokens in the specified time window. If your notification email listed 0 apps, it means no apps created tokens during the time window in question (I got 1 app listed). I only missed that those tokens had 1h lifetime.
- dundarious 4y agoListing token times instead of just apps, and doing so nearer the actual time instead of 3 months later, are the key parts of my suggestion.
