Month: 2025-10 — Delivered three feature enhancements in trufflesecurity/trufflehog, expanding secure scanning capabilities, detector robustness, and test coverage. Key outcomes include: Confluence Comments Scanning enabled by adding comment_id to Confluence protobuf and an include_comments flag in the sources protobuf, allowing processing and identification of sensitive information within Confluence comments. Atlassian Detector ID Context enhanced to pass Organization ID into AnalysisInfo, with a new Organization ID regex and tests covering scenarios with and without Org ID. Postmark Detector now supports account API tokens in addition to server tokens, with key verification refactored into distinct server/account flows and integration tests updated to validate both token types. These changes collectively broaden data-source coverage, strengthen authentication checks, and improve maintainability and risk detection across detectors.
