Findings page

The Vulnerabilities tab on the Findings page displays the vulnerabilities detected by the CNVM integration, as well as those identified by third-party integrations.

What are CNVM findings?

edit

CNVM findings represent security vulnerabilities detected in your cloud. They include metadata such as the CVE identifier, CVSS score, severity, affected package, and fix version if available, as well as information about impacted systems.

Clicking on a finding provides a detailed description of the vulnerability, and any available remediation information.

Group and filter findings

edit

To help you prioritize remediation efforts, you can organize findings in various ways.

Group findings

edit

Click Group vulnerabilities by to group your data by a field. Select one of the suggested fields or Custom field to choose your own. You can select up to three group fields at once. . When grouping is turned on, click a group to expand it and examine all sub-groups or findings within that group. . To turn off grouping, click Group vulnerabilities by: and select None.

Multiple groupings apply to your data in the order you selected them. For example, if you first select Cloud account, then select Resource, the top-level grouping will be based on Cloud account, and its subordinate grouping will be based on Resource, as demonstrated in the following screenshot:

Filter findings

edit

You can filter the data in two ways:

KQL search bar: For example, search for vulnerability.severity : "HIGH" to view high severity vulnerabilities.
In-table value filters: Hover over a finding to display available inline actions. Use the Filter In (plus) and Filter Out (minus) buttons.

Customize the Findings table

edit

When grouping is turned off, you can use the toolbar buttons in the upper-left of the Findings table to select which columns appear:

Columns: Select the left-to-right order in which columns appear.
Sort fields: Sort the table by one or more columns, or turn sorting off.
Fields: Select which fields to display for each finding. Selected fields appear in the table and the Columns menu.

You can also click a column’s name to open a menu that allows you to perform multiple actions on the column.

Learn more about a vulnerability

edit

Click a vulnerability to open the vulnerability details flyout. This flyout includes a link to the related vulnerability database, the vulnerability’s publication date, CVSS vector strings, fix versions (if available), and more.

When you open the vulnerability details flyout, it defaults to the Overview tab, which highlights key information. To view every field present in the vulnerability document, select the Table or JSON tabs.

Remediate vulnerabilities

edit

To remediate a vulnerability and reduce your attack surface, update the affected package if a fix is available.

Generate alerts for failed Findings

edit

You can create detection rules that detect specific vulnerabilities directly from the Findings page:

Click a vulnerability to open the vulnerability details flyout flyout.
Click Take action, then Create a detection rule. This automatically creates a detection rule that creates alerts when the associated vulnerability is found.
To review or customize the new rule, click View rule.
