This feature allows users to compare two versions of a scanned build and see the security differences between them, such as any new CVEs that have been introduced. With this feature you will be able to:
Compare security posture between two build versions.
Identify new CVEs introduced in the newer version.
Get detailed information on each CVE including severity, description, and remediation.
Proactively detect security regressions between build versions.
Quickly identify and mitigate newly introduced vulnerabilities.
You can compare current build version against any previous version that was indexed by Xray.
To compare build versions:
In Scans List, navigate to the Builds tab.
Select the Build, and in the Build Versions list, from the three dot menu on the right, select Compare to Version.
The compare dialog appears.
Select the version you want to compare from the drop-down.
The diff view appears. It will display the following:
Summary of security changes between the versions.
CVEs that exist in one version, but not the other, are indicated as Added. CVEs that were fixed, are marked as Resolved.
Details on each CVE are displayed in the right pane when you click on the CVE.
CVEs that are not affected are hidden. Click View Unchanged CVEs on the bottom to view the full list.
Filter the view by the selecting/deselecting Added/Resolved checkboxes.
