Batch edit Scan vulnerability status

When Contrast discovers a vulnerability during a scan, it assigns a status of Reported to the vulnerability. This status indicates that the vulnerability could possibly be exploited.

You can change this status for multiple vulnerabilities, based on how you are managing them, to one of these values:

Steps

  1. Select Scans in the header.

  2. Select a Scan project.

  3. Select the Vulnerabilities tab.

  4. Use the checkbox on the left to select multiple vulnerabilities with the same status.

    Selecting multiple vulnerabilities with different statuses is not supported.

  5. In the batch action menu at the bottom of the page, select Status and select a status from the dropdown.

  6. Optionally select the checkbox to change the status of all vulnerabilities with the same type.

    This image shows the change status window for multiple vulnerabilities.
  7. Optionally, enter a comment in the Mark window.

  8. Select Change status.

Note

Changing the status for large numbers of vulnerabilities at the same time can take several minutes to complete. Contrast displays a message when the change operation finishes.
