Security

A security vulnerability has been identified in a core gh dependency, go-gh, where an attacker-controlled GitHub Enterprise Server could result in executing arbitrary commands on a user's machine by replacing HTTP URLs provided by GitHub with local file paths for browsing.

This issue is addressed in this gh release by updating go-gh to a fixed version.

For more information, see GHSA-g9f5-x53j-h563

Copilot Coding Agent Support

You can now assign issues to GitHub Copilot directly from gh, just as you would assign them to a teammate. Use gh issue edit <number> --add-assignee @copilot to assign the GitHub Copilot coding agent, and Copilot will work in the background to understand the issue, propose a solution, and open a pull request when it's ready for your review. If you run gh issue edit interactively, Copilot (AI) will be displayed as a potential assignee. This feature is available for GitHub Copilot Pro+ and Copilot Enterprise subscribers. For more details, refer to the full changelog post for Copilot coding agent.

Accessibility public preview

This release marks the public preview of several accessibility improvements to the GitHub CLI that have been under development over the past year in partnership with our friends at Charm including:

customizable and contrasting colors
non-interactive user input prompting
text-based spinners

These new experiences are captured in a new gh a11y help topic command, which goes into greater detail into the motivation behind each of them as well as opt-in configuration settings / environment variables.

We would like you to share your feedback and join us on this journey through one of GitHub Accessibility feedback channels! 🙌

Accessibility

This release contains dark shipped changes that are part of a larger GitHub CLI accessibility preview still under development. More information about these will be announced later this month including various channels to work with GitHub and GitHub CLI maintainers on shaping these experiences.

Ensure table headers are thematically contrasting

#8292 is a long time issue where table headers were difficult to see in terminals with light background. Ahead of the aforementioned preview, v2.70.0 has shipped changes that improve the out-of-the-box experience based on terminal background detection.

The following screenshots demonstrate the Mac Terminal using the Basic profile, which responds to user's appearance preferences:

For more information including demos from various official distributions, see #10649.
