+### Using a custom SSL CA certificate authority
+
+You can use the `ADDITIONAL_CA_CERT_BUNDLE` CI/CD variable to configure a custom SSL CA certificate authority. The `ADDITIONAL_CA_CERT_BUNDLE` value should contain the [text representation of the X.509 PEM public-key certificate](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7468#section-5.1). For example, to configure this value in the `.gitlab-ci.yml` file, use the following:
+
+```yaml
+variables:
+ ADDITIONAL_CA_CERT_BUNDLE: |
+ -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
+ MIIGqTCCBJGgAwIBAgIQI7AVxxVwg2kch4d56XNdDjANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQsFADCB
+ ...
+ jWgmPqF3vUbZE0EyScetPJquRFRKIesyJuBFMAs=
+ -----END CERTIFICATE-----
+```
+
+The `ADDITIONAL_CA_CERT_BUNDLE` value can also be configured as a [custom variable in the UI](../../../ci/variables/README.md#create-a-custom-variable-in-the-ui), either as a `file`, which requires the path to the certificate, or as a variable, which requires the text representation of the certificate.

+1. Go to the vulnerability's page.
+1. Select **Create Jira issue**.
+
+An issue is created in the linked Jira project, with the **Summary** and **Description** fields
+pre-populated. The Jira issue is then opened in a new browser tab.
+
+### Enable or disable Jira integration for vulnerabilities **(ULTIMATE SELF)**
+
+The option to create a Jira issue for a vulnerability is under development but ready for production
+use. It is deployed behind a feature flag that is **enabled by default**.
+[GitLab administrators with access to the GitLab Rails console](../../../administration/feature_flags.md)
+can opt to disable it.
+
+To enable it:
+
+```ruby
+Feature.enable(:jira_for_vulnerabilities)
+```
+
+To disable it:
+
+```ruby
+Feature.disable(:jira_for_vulnerabilities)
+```
+
+## Link GitLab issues to the vulnerability
+
+NOTE:
+If Jira issue support is enabled, GitLab issues are disabled so this feature is not available.
+
+You can link one or more existing GitLab issues to the vulnerability. This allows you to
indicate that this vulnerability affects multiple issues. It also allows you to indicate
that the resolution of one issue would resolve multiple vulnerabilities.
-## Automatic remediation for vulnerabilities
+Linked issues are shown in the Vulnerability Report and the vulnerability's page.
+
+## Automatically remediate the vulnerability
You can fix some vulnerabilities by applying the solution that GitLab automatically
generates for you. [Read more about the automatic remediation for vulnerabilities feature](../index.md#automatic-remediation-for-vulnerabilities).

+# GitLab Vulnerability Reports **(ULTIMATE)**
+
+Each vulnerability report contains vulnerabilities from the scans of the most recent branch merged into the default branch.
+
+The vulnerability reports display the total number of vulnerabilities by severity (for example,
+Critical, High, Medium, Low, Info, Unknown). Below this, a table shows each vulnerability's detected date, status, severity, description, identifier, the scanner where it was detected, and activity (including related issues or available solutions). By default, the vulnerability report is filtered to display all detected and confirmed vulnerabilities.
+
+![Vulnerability Report](img/group_vulnerability_report_v13_9.png)
+
+You can filter which vulnerabilities display by:
+
+| Filter | Available Options |
+| --- | --- |
+| Status | Detected, Confirmed, Dismissed, Resolved |
+| Severity | Critical, High, Medium, Low, Info, Unknown |
+| Scanner | [Available Scanners](../index.md#security-scanning-tools) |
+| Project | Projects configured in the Security Center settings, or all projects in the group for the group level report. This filter is not displayed on the project level vulnerability report |
+| Activity | Vulnerabilities with issues and vulnerabilities that are no longer detected in the default branch |
+
+The Activity filter behaves differently from the other Vulnerability Report filters. The other filter options all OR together to show results from any vulnerability matching one of the filter criteria. With the Activity filter, the selected values form mutually exclusive sets to allow for precisely locating the desired vulnerability records. Additionally, not all options can be selected in combination. Selection behavior when using the Activity filter:
+
+| Activity Selection | Results Displayed |
+| --- | --- |
+| All | Vulnerabilities with any Activity status (same as ignoring this filter). Selecting this will deselect any other Activity filter options. |
+| No activity | Only vulnerabilities without either an associated Issue or that are no longer detected. Selecting this will deselect any other Activity filter options. |
+| With issues | Only vulnerabilities with one or more associated issues. Does not include vulnerabilities that also are no longer detected. |
+| No longer detected | Only vulnerabilities that are no longer detected in the latest pipeline scan of the `default` branch. Does not include vulnerabilities with one or more associated issues. |
+| With issues and No longer detected | Only vulnerabilities that have one or more associated issues and also are no longer detected in the latest pipeline scan of the `default` branch. |
+
+Clicking any vulnerability in the table takes you to its
+[vulnerability details](../vulnerabilities) page to see more information on that vulnerability.
+
+The **Activity** column indicates the number of issues that have been created for the vulnerability.
+Hover over an **Activity** entry and select a link go to that issue.
+
+![Display attached issues](img/vulnerability_list_table_v13_9.png)
+
+Contents of the unfiltered vulnerability report can be exported using our [export feature](#export-vulnerabilities).
+
+You can also dismiss vulnerabilities in the table:
+
+1. Select the checkbox for each vulnerability you want to dismiss.
+1. In the menu that appears, select the reason for dismissal and click **Dismiss Selected**.

+## Project Vulnerability Report
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/6165) in [GitLab Ultimate](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 11.1.
+
+The vulnerabilities that exist in your project's
+[default branch](../../project/repository/branches/index.md#default-branch) are accessed by navigating to
+**Security & Compliance > Vulnerability Report**.
+
+The project vulnerability report first displays the time at which the last pipeline completed on the project's
+default branch. There's also a link to view this in more detail. In the case of any pipeline failures,
+the number of failures is indicated. The failure notification takes you directly to
+the **Failed jobs** tab of the pipeline page.
+

+
+## Export vulnerabilities
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/213014) in [GitLab Ultimate](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 12.10.
+
+You can export all your vulnerabilities in CSV (comma separated values) format by clicking the
+**{upload}** **Export** button located at top right of the Security Dashboard. When the report is
+ready, the CSV report downloads to your local machine. The report contains all vulnerabilities for
+the projects defined in the Security Dashboard, as filters don't apply to the export function.
+
+NOTE:
+It may take several minutes for the download to start if your project contains
+thousands of vulnerabilities. Don't close the page until the download finishes.
+
+The fields in the export include:
+
+- Group Name
+- Project Name
+- Scanner Type
+- Scanner Name
+- Status
+- Vulnerability
+- Details
+- Additional Information
+- Severity
+- [CVE](https://cve.mitre.org/) (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures)
+- [CWE](https://cwe.mitre.org/) (Common Weakness Enumeration)
+- Other Identifiers
