Inspectopedia Help

Vulnerable imported dependency

Reports vulnerabilities in Gradle and Maven dependencies imported into your project. A full list of Gradle and Maven dependencies is shown in the Project tool window under External Libraries.

Fixing the reported problems helps prevent your software from being compromised by an attacker.

To solve a problem, you can update to a version where the vulnerability is fixed (if available) or switch to a dependency that doesn't have the vulnerability.

The quick-fixes available may suggest updating to a safe version or visiting the website to learn more about a particular vulnerability.
