Exam GH-500 Topic 1 Question 70 Discussion

Actual exam question for Microsoft's GH-500 exam
Question #: 70
Topic #: 1
Assuming there is no custom Dependabot behavior configured, where possible, what does Dependabot do after sending an alert about a vulnerable dependency in a repository?

Suggested Answer: A Vote an answer

After generating an alert for a vulnerable dependency, Dependabot automatically attempts to create a pull request to upgrade that dependency to the minimum required secure version-if a fix is available and compatible with your project.
This automated PR helps teams fix vulnerabilities quickly with minimal manual intervention. You can also configure update behaviors using dependabot.yml, but in the default state, PR creation is automatic.
