Reference D: Issue category routing

.Each issue category tab in the scan side panel presents a distinct detection type that demands a distinct investigation. Configurations and Package Integrity each present two tables. Remediation is performed from the Resolution tab of the issue side card; use this table for the prioritization model and the full remediation lifecycle of each category.

Vulnerabilities

Known CVE vulnerabilities in open-source dependencies, including transitive dependencies; detections originate from the native SCA scanner, from ingested third-party CVE findings, or from both

Whether a fix version exists, whether the vulnerable package is reachable from application code, and which source produced the detection — read the Scanner field in the issue side panel, as described in Reference G: Scanner to issue category mapping

Configurations

IaC Misconfigurations

IaC misconfigurations in Terraform, CloudFormation, Kubernetes, and Helm templates

The specific resource block and attribute in the template, and whether the template is deployed

Configurations

CI/CD Risks

Insecure CI/CD pipeline configuration detected in the repository, such as an unpinned action, an over-permissioned workflow token, or a poisoned pipeline execution path

How the configuration is reachable by an attacker, and what the pipeline can access if compromised

Secrets

Hardcoded credentials, API keys, and tokens in the working tree, and in commit history when Git History Scan is enabled

The validation status of the secret; a validated, active credential is a containment task with a rotation deadline, not a code-cleanup task

Package Integrity

Licenses

License miscompliance in open-source dependencies

The license obligation the dependency imposes, and whether the obligation conflicts with how the software is distributed

Package Integrity

Package Operational Risk

Operational risk in open-source dependencies, such as an unmaintained, deprecated, or outdated package

The operational risk rating of the package, and whether a maintained replacement exists

Malicious Packages

Open-source dependencies matched against the malicious packages dataset — typosquatted names, backdoored libraries, and hijacked versions, covering direct and transitive dependencies; a malicious package carries no CVE, so vulnerability scanning does not detect it

Whether the package reached a deployed artifact, and whether the dependency is direct or transitive

Note: License Miscompliance, Package Operational Risk, and Malicious Packages issues do not receive Urgency classification. Prioritize a Package Integrity issue by the license obligation, the operational risk rating, and the presence of associated CVE vulnerabilities. Every malicious package issue is raised at Critical severity, so severity does not order one against another — prioritize by deployment status first, then by dependency type. See Malicious packages issues.
