An important filter field is Alert Type. This filter allows you to see those dependencies with License warnings, dependencies tagged as with Malware code, or Obsolete dependencies.
Filtering by Licensing allows you to see those dependencies with some kind of License warning.
Basically, a Licensing Compliance Alert has to do with usage of Copyleft licenses.
Filtering by Malware allows you to see those dependencies with some kins of malware.
Malware alerts may come from two possible sources:
1.- For "known" malware, Xygeni takes the information from public sources (NIST's NVD, GitHub Advisory Database and OSV among others )
2.- For "unknown" malware, Xygeni provides a Malware Early Warning functionality that continuously conducts a real-time scan to detect and block malware based on code behavior analysis. See Malware Early Warning for further details.
Known malware information come from public CVEs (NVD and OSV mainly). Therefore, the details of the issue are according to the public CVE. See Public Vulnerabilities (CVEs) for further details.
For malware detected by Xygeni, the details are richer. See Malware details (MEW) for further details.
