GitHub's SAML implementation is useless. The idea is that you can bring your own account into an enterprise, and that sort of works on the site itself, but it does not prevent apps where you log in with GitHub from reading your organization membership once you have authorized an app on the organization level (and if you didn't, it hides the membership from oauth tokens, so it has this capability!).
A SAML session is only required if said app fetches data via a token obtained from that user - and in my glance around, this was almost never the case - SAST tools almost always use app instance tokens and are happy to show anyone with a GitHub account in your organization your code. Tailscale fixed this when I pointed it out, Sonarcloud told me to please don't tell anyone and GitHub took a few weeks to say this is totally expected behavior - when no vendor I told did, and their docs contradicted them.
I swear, reporting security bugs is a thankless endeavor, even if you just randomly stumble over them. I couldn't imagine doing this as a job.
