When you run vulnerability scans, images that are subject to Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) are identified. According to the severity of the CVE and your security settings, these images might not be permitted to run. You can create allowlists of CVEs to ignore during vulnerability scanning.

Harbor administrators can set a system-wide CVE allowlist. For information about site-wide CVE allowlists, see Configure System-Wide CVE Allowlists. By default, the system allowlist is applied to all projects. You can configure different CVE allowlists for individual projects, that override the system allowlist.

1. Go to Projects, select a project, and select Configuration.

2. Under CVE allowlist, select Project allowlist.

   

   

3. Optionally click Copy From System to add all of the CVE IDs from the system CVE allowlist to this project allowlist.

4. Click Add and enter a list of additional CVE IDs to ignore during vulnerability scanning of this project.

   

   

   Either use a comma-separated list or newlines to add multiple CVE IDs to the list.

5. Click Add at the bottom of the window to add the CVEs to the project allowlist.

6. Optionally uncheck the Never expires checkbox and use the calendar selector to set an expiry date for the allowlist.

7. Click Save at the bottom of the page to save your settings.

After you have created a project allowlist, you can remove CVE IDs from the list by clicking the delete button next to it in the list. You can click Add at any time to add more CVE IDs to this project allowlist.

If CVEs are added to the system allowlist after you have created a project allowlist, click Copy From System to add the new entries from the system allowlist to the project allowlist.
