Problem

Software license is a legal instrument that governs the use and distribution of software source code and its binary representation. Software publishers have the freedom to choose any commonly used or purposefully written license to publish their work under. While some licenses are liberal and allow almost any kind of distribution, with or without code modification, other licenses are more restrictive and impose rules for their inclusion in other software projects. Some software licenses specify that a separate agreement may be required for the use of patents the code may be leveraging. Patents are granted for significant innovations, and their use is typically tied to monetary compensation. When building commercial applications, this may be undesirable. Therefore, the inclusion of any patent-protected code is commonly scrutinized and often prohibited by the organization policy.

Problem

Software composition analysis has identified a component with one or more known severe vulnerabilities. Available threat intelligence telemetry has confirmed that the reported high or critical severity vulnerabilities are actively being exploited by malicious actors.

Problem

Software composition analysis has identified a component with one or more known vulnerabilities. Available threat intelligence telemetry has confirmed that the reported vulnerabilities are actively being exploited by malicious actors. Malware code that propagates through these vulnerabilities has been created. This increases the chance of automated malware attacks affecting the software component users.

Problem

Software composition analysis has identified a component with one or more known vulnerabilities. Based on the CVSS scoring, these vulnerabilities have been marked as critical severity.

Problem

Data Execution Prevention (DEP/NX) is a vulnerability mitigation option that prevents data from being interpreted as code anywhere within the application. This mitigation protects the application stack, heap and other memory data ranges. Executable files that fail to implement this mitigation expose the user to increased risks of malicious code injection.
