# Vulnerability Findings API **(ULTIMATE)**

> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/19029) in GitLab Ultimate 12.5.

NOTE: **Note:**
This API resource is renamed from Vulnerabilities to Vulnerability Findings because the Vulnerabilities are reserved
for serving the upcoming [Standalone Vulnerability objects](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/13561).
To fix any broken integrations with the former Vulnerabilities API, change the `vulnerabilities` URL part to be
`vulnerability_findings`.

Every API call to vulnerability findings must be [authenticated](README.md#authentication).

Vulnerability findings are project-bound entities. If a user is not
a member of a project and the project is private, a request on
that project will result in a `404` status code.

If a user is able to access the project but does not have permission to
[use the Project Security Dashboard](../user/permissions.md#project-members-permissions),
any request for vulnerability findings of this project will result in a `403` status code.

CAUTION: **Caution:**
This API is in an alpha stage and considered unstable.
The response payload may be subject to change or breakage
across GitLab releases.

## Vulnerability findings pagination

By default, `GET` requests return 20 results at a time because the API results
are paginated.

Read more on [pagination](README.md#pagination).

## List project vulnerability findings

List all of a project's vulnerability findings.

```plaintext
GET /projects/:id/vulnerability_findings

GET /projects/:id/vulnerability_findings?report_type=container_scanning
GET /projects/:id/vulnerability_findings?report_type=sast,dast

CAUTION: **Deprecation:**
Beginning with GitLab 12.9, the `undefined` severity and confidence level is no longer reported.

    "description": "Some XML DOM traversal and canonicalization APIs may be inconsistent in handling of comments within XML nodes. Incorrect use of these APIs by some SAML libraries results in incorrect parsing of the inner text of XML nodes such that any inner text after the comment is lost prior to cryptographically signing the SAML message. Text after the comment therefore has no impact on the signature on the SAML message.\r\n\r\nA remote attacker can modify SAML content for a SAML service provider without invalidating the cryptographic signature, which may allow attackers to bypass primary authentication for the affected SAML service provider.",
