Vulnerabilities

The Vulnerabilities view (Inventory → Vulnerabilities, /vulnerabilities) is the environment-wide roll-up of known CVEs and the scans that produced them.

The Vulnerabilities screen

Four stat cards summarize the picture: Total Vulnerabilities, Critical, High, and Scans run. Below them are two tables:

  • Recent Vulnerability Scans — one row per scan (application, version, date, total vulnerabilities, Critical/High counts, and status). Clicking a row opens the scan detail at /vulnerabilities/scans/<id>.
  • All Vulnerabilities — every discovered CVE with its application, severity, CVSS score, an Exploited flag, and description. A search box filters by CVE id, and each row links to the CVE detail at /vulnerabilities/cve/<cve>.

Where findings come from

Vulnerability data flows in from three places, and each surfaces both here and on the relevant asset detail tabs:

SourceWhat it contributesWhere it shows
Rapid7 InsightVMPer-asset findings and the asset’s risk score / Critical-Severe counts.Asset detail → Findings and Rapid7 tabs.
SentinelOneAgent-reported threats and application vulnerability status.Asset detail → SentinelOne tab (KPIs count active threats).
Per-application CVE scansOn-demand scans of an app + version against CVE data (optionally enriched).Asset detail → Vulnerabilities tab, and the application detail.

Running scans

CVE scans are launched on demand:

  • From the application detail — select one or more versions and click Scan (POST /vulnerabilities/scan).
  • From an asset detail — the Run scan button scans the machine’s installed applications (POST /vulnerabilities/scan-device); results land on that asset’s Vulnerabilities tab.

Researching a finding

On an asset’s Findings tab, each Rapid7 CVE offers a Research action that enriches the finding with additional CVE intelligence, marking it researched when complete.
