Comparing Build Versions
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.
