Security advisory credit badge not appearing on profile?

Hello there!

About a month ago, I reported a vulnerability and the credit now appears in the advisory. However, I am wondering why there is no security advisory badge on my profile ("highlights" section), as is mentioned in the docs. It doesn't look like this feature has been removed, as seen here.

There have also been similar problems in the past and seemingly no automated solution. Does Github staff add this manually?

Any help with this would be awesome! Thanks so much!

Here are some steps you can take and considerations to keep in mind:

• Verify Credit in the Advisory
• Check Badge Criteria
• Delay in Badge Display
• Manual Addition by GitHub Staff
• Contact GitHub Support

Thank you for your reply!

What do you mean by verifying? I accepted credit quite a while ago and it does show up in the advisory. In the advisory, it shows the disclaimer below, too. So the system did register it - it just does not appear on the profile.

In the description above, I have linked an account that meets the same criteria as I do (accepted credit for reporting a vulnerability) and it does show up there.

Edit: Moving it over to be a reply.
