Viewing and managing security issues in your DevOps platform

On this page

This page explains how to view and/or manage the security issues reported by SonarQube Server in your GitHub or GitLab instance.

Managing security issues in GitHub

When you analyze a project in SonarQube, the detected security issues are displayed on the GitHub interface as code scanning alerts if set up in your system. When you change the status of a security issue in the SonarQube interface that status change is immediately reflected in the GitHub interface. Similarly, if you change the status of a code scanning alert in GitHub, that change is reflected in SonarQube.

To view and manage your code scanning alerts:

  1. In GitHub, go to your repository's Security > Code scanning alerts tab.
  2. Select View alerts to see the full list.

Viewing the security issues in GitLab

When you analyze a project in SonarQube Server, the detected security issues are displayed on the GitLab interface as security vulnerabilities if set up in GitLab CI/CD. When you change the status of a security issue in the SonarQube Server interface that status change is immediately reflected in the GitLab interface. 

To view the security vulnerabilities:

  •  Go to the GitLab > Vulnerability report page.
