However, relying on the third-party code arises the security issue whether you use vulnerable dependencies in your project.

The bundled IntelliJ IDEA Package Checker plugin that is powered by Checkmarx checks Gradle, Maven, NPM and PyPI dependencies for known vulnerabilities and lets you manage such cases by getting the information about a vulnerable dependency and update it to the newly released version.
