deleting a reported vulnerability and changing the severity.

Hello Veracode team,

 

-Is there a way to delete a specific vulnerability in the triage flaw?

-Is there a way to change/lower the severity of a vulnerability?

Thank you.

    Hi @NOcius720147 (Community Member)​,

    Thanks for your questions.

     

    In order to remove a flaw from the Triage Flaws page the issue must either be remediated (by making an appropriate remedial code change and re-scan the application) or mitigated. If mitigating a comment must be provided by you for review by your security team and if they approve the mitigation it will no longer show on the Triage Flaws page. There is no mechanism to 'delete' flaws to preserve the audit trail from flaw identification to remediation. Veracode recommends you remediate the security flaws found within the application.

     

    The severity of a flaw can be changed by altering the application policy. It is likely you will need to speak with your security team about your requirements for a different policy for the application.

     

    Thanks,

    Anthony Fielding
