Cut CVE noise by up to 90% with Socket's Reachability Analysis
By analyzing both your app and its dependencies, Socket filters out unreachable and unexploitable CVEs automatically. Powered by industry-leading static analysis, Socket delivers the most precise CVE triage available.
Reachability Options for Every Team
Choose the level of precision that fits your workflow, from package-level filtering to full application analysis.
Full Application Reachability
Cuts up to 90% false positives with deep analysis of both app and dependency code, pinpointing exact vulnerable paths. Requires a simple CLI or GitHub Action setup.
Precomputed Reachability
Cuts up to 80% false positives by analyzing dependency code at the function level. Works out of the box across all integrations.
Dependency Reachability
Cuts up to 35% false positives by filtering unreachable CVEs at the package level. Works out of the box across all integrations.
The reduction of false positives is a pretty big one, especially with the ability to determine whether or not functions are actually being accessed from those dependencies. That's been a huge benefit. It lets us focus only on what matters.
The Advantages of Reachability Analysis
Build more efficient open source vulnerability scanning into your software development lifecycle. With more than 80% of vulnerabilities being unreachable, you save time and resources by focusing only on the remaining few that pose a real threat.
Understand reachable vulnerabilities deep in your dependencies
Identify reachable vulnerabilities in both direct and transitive dependencies at any depth.
Reduce vulnerabilities in your code
Pinpoint the exact locations in your code affected by reachable vulnerabilities.
Only alert on real risks
Stop wasting time on vulnerabilities that can't be exploited in your code.
