FAQPage Schema
How do I scan project dependencies for known security vulnerabilities?▼

Dependency vulnerability auditing identifies and describes security flaws in a project's dependency tree. It performs scanning, reporting, and cross-referencing with previous audits to report severity, basis, source, package, and reachability without applying fixes.

Does dependency vulnerability scanning work with npm, pip, cargo, and gradlew projects?▼

Dependency vulnerability auditing requires native vulnerability scanners like osv-scanner and bundle-audit, plus Dependabot for GitHub-hosted repositories. You must have these tools installed and configured in your development environment to execute the scanning and cross-referencing processes.

How do I automate dependency security audits for a deployment workflow?▼

Dependency vulnerability auditing reports the severity, basis, source, package, and reachability of vulnerabilities found in a project's dependency tree. It scans dependencies, cross-references findings with previous audits, and generates a comprehensive report without applying any fixes.

What's the best way to report severity and reachability of vulnerabilities in a dependency tree?▼

Dependency vulnerability auditing identifies security flaws in a project's dependency tree without applying fixes. It generates comprehensive reports detailing the severity, basis, source, package, and reachability of vulnerabilities, making it suitable for code audits and deployment preparation.

Do I need Dependabot to audit dependencies in GitHub-hosted repositories?▼

Dependency vulnerability auditing does not apply fixes to identified security flaws. It strictly performs scanning, reporting, and cross-referencing with previous audits to describe the severity and reachability of vulnerabilities, leaving remediation to the developer.
