Question
We sometimes may find the difference between the number of detected vulnerabilities and the "All known CVEs".
Why didn't Prisma Cloud detect any vulnerabilities even if some packages have known CVEs?
(ex.) GUI Path: Runtime Security > Monitor > Vulnerabilities > Images > Select Image
- Vulnerability (No detection)
- All know CVEs
Environment
- Prisma Cloud Compute
- Vulnerabilities
Answer
The "All known CVEs" means the number of CVE that over all of the history of a package.
It doesn't mean the number of CVE related to the specific version of the package.
That means the current version of the package that you use might have already resolved some CVEs.
Therefore the number of vulnerabilities is not related to the number of the "All known CVEs".
Additional Information
This behavior is working by design.
