Vulnerabilities overview

This document explains the information found on the Vulnerabilities page.

Information available on the Vulnerabilities page​

This section describes each of the available fields you can view on the vulnerabilities page. There are two types of view: by Type and by Vulnerability. Use the former to group all vulnerabilities by type, across all the target scans. Use the latter to see individually all vulnerabilities, across all the target scans. By clicking the Columns button, you can adjust the visibility of information.

From either view, you can open a vulnerability to see its details, including CWE ID, CVSS v3.0, and CVSS v4.0 scores. For more information, refer to the View vulnerability details document.
