Vulnerability Scanner
Scan codebases, dependencies, and configurations for security vulnerabilities including CVE detection, code-level flaws, and insecure defaults, with severity ratings and remediation steps.
Overview
This skill empowers Claude to automatically scan your codebase for security vulnerabilities. It leverages the vulnerability-scanner plugin to identify potential risks, including code-level flaws, vulnerable dependencies, and insecure configurations.
How It Works
- Initiate Scan: The skill activates the vulnerability-scanner plugin based on user input.
- Perform Analysis: The plugin scans the codebase, dependencies, and configurations for vulnerabilities, including CVE detection.
- Generate Report: The plugin creates a detailed vulnerability report with findings, severity levels, and remediation guidance.
When to Use This Skill
This skill activates when you need to:
- Identify security vulnerabilities in your code.
- Check your project's dependencies for known CVEs.
- Review your project's configurations for security weaknesses.
