All AI-generated code must be submitted to GitLab China for security scanning to ensure code quality and compliance.
π AI Code Security Workflow
π‘οΈ GitLab Security Features
Static Application Security Testing (SAST)
Analyzes source code without execution to detect SQL injection, XSS, hardcoded secrets, insecure cryptography, and more. GitLab natively supports Semgrep, SpotBugs, Gosec, and other analyzers covering 20+ languages.
Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST)
Black-box testing of running applications simulating real attack scenarios to detect runtime vulnerabilities like auth bypass, session flaws, and SSRF. GitLab DAST is powered by OWASP ZAP with API and web app scanning support.
Dependency Scanning
Automatically scans third-party libraries and components for known CVE vulnerabilities. Supports npm, pip, Maven, Go modules, and other major package managers.
Secret Detection
Scans repositories for accidentally committed API keys, tokens, passwords, and other sensitive credentials. Especially critical for AI-generated code.
Container Scanning
Scans Docker images for OS and application-layer vulnerabilities to ensure deployed container images are secure.
License Compliance
Automatically identifies open-source license types in project dependencies, detects license conflicts, and ensures AI-generated code dependencies meet enterprise compliance requirements.
Security Dashboard
Provides a unified vulnerability view at project and group levels with full lifecycle management including severity grading, assignment, tracking, and fix verification.
π Artifact Security Workflow
πΈ JFrog Artifactory & Xray
Unified Artifact Repository
Artifactory serves as the single enterprise artifact management platform, managing npm, PyPI, Maven, NuGet, Go, Docker, Helm, and all package types. Remote repositories proxy and cache public sources, ensuring build reproducibility and supply chain security.
Xray Security Scanning
JFrog Xray performs deep recursive scanning of all artifacts in Artifactory, detecting known CVE vulnerabilities, malicious packages, and license compliance issues. Supports custom security policies to automatically block non-compliant artifact downloads and deployments.
Security Policies & Compliance
Through Xray's Watch and Policy mechanisms, set vulnerability severity thresholds (e.g., block Critical/High severity artifacts), license allow/deny lists, and custom rules for automated security compliance governance.
SBOM (Software Bill of Materials)
Automatically generates Software Bill of Materials tracking complete dependency trees, vulnerability status, and license information for every artifact, meeting supply chain security audit requirements.
