    • For Recommend level findings, developers can submit exception requests if they feel the issue should not be considered a finding.

    Vorbereitungen

    Role required: Scan Engine Admin (sn_se.scan_engine_admin).

    Generally, exceptions require approval from a system administrator. However, certain settings configured by a system administrator may determine if the exception is automatically approved or rejected.

    Prozedur

    1. From the finding record, select Scan Engine Exceptions.
      This displays all applicable script issues identified by the Scan Engine that also qualify for an exception.
    2. Enter your reasoning for why an exception should be made for this finding in the Exception Reason field.
    3. To have the exception reviewed by a system administrator, select Request Approval.
      If enabled, the exception state is Requested. If not, the state is Not Yet Requested.
    4. Select OK to file the exception request.
      Once the exception request is saved, the applicable warning messages now show as blue and the file can be saved.
