Top issues

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. Regulatory body or a government agency has issued a patching mandate for all software components affected by the identified vulnerabilities.

Next steps

We strongly advise updating the component to the latest version.
If the update can't resolve the issue, create a plan to isolate or replace the affected component.

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.

Perform impact analysis for the reported CVEs.
We strongly advise updating the component to the latest version.
If the update can't resolve the issue, create a plan to isolate or replace the affected component.

Problem

The stack is a special program segment which is writable by design, and is commonly used to store function-specific data and execution context. Granting execution privileges to the stack segment reduces application security, because it makes it possible to execute arbitrary code stored on the stack. While many modern compilers will implement a non-executable stack by default, it can be unintentionally disabled or made explicitly executable in automatically generated or misconfigured compiler options.
