Information About Vulnerability Processing

The following is information about the Library Refresh processing of new security vulnerabilities against Code Insight inventory:

  • Processing of only vulnerabilities new since last Refresh—A Library Refresh processes only those new vulnerabilities reported in the last 24 hours.

    • If the Refresh reports no new vulnerabilities, then no alerts, emails, or remediations tasks are generated.

  • Initial Library Refresh—The first time that the Library Refresh is run, it processes the new vulnerabilities reported in the last 24 hours (as normal). However, all new vulnerabilities missed between the last Electronic Update and the initial Refresh will be processed in the next Electronic Update.

  • Library Refresh that fails to start—See Failure of Library Refresh Start.

  • Maximum records processed—A Library Refresh will process a maximum of 10,000 records. If the number of new records is greater than 10,000, the remaining data is processed in the next Electronic Update.
