# Project vulnerabilities API

WARNING:
This API is in the process of being deprecated and considered unstable.
The response payload may be subject to change or breakage
across GitLab releases. Use the
[GraphQL API](graphql/reference/index.md#queryvulnerabilities)
instead.
Every API call to vulnerabilities must be [authenticated](rest/authentication.md).
Vulnerability permissions inherit permissions from their project. If a project is
private, and a user isn't a member of the project to which the vulnerability
belongs, requests to that project returns a `404 Not Found` status code.
## Vulnerabilities pagination
API results are paginated, and `GET` requests return 20 results at a time by default.
Read more on [pagination](rest/index.md#pagination).
## List project vulnerabilities
List all of a project's vulnerabilities.
If an authenticated user does not have permission to
[use the Project Security Dashboard](../user/permissions.md#project-members-permissions),
`GET` requests for vulnerabilities of this project result in a `403` status code.
```plaintext
GET /projects/:id/vulnerabilities
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
| ------------- | -------------- | -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `id` | integer or string | yes | The ID or [URL-encoded path of the project](rest/index.md#namespaced-paths). |

## New vulnerability
Creates a new vulnerability.
If an authenticated user does not have a permission to
[create a new vulnerability](../user/permissions.md#project-members-permissions),
this request results in a `403` status code.
```plaintext
POST /projects/:id/vulnerabilities?finding_id=<your_finding_id>
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
| ------------------- | ----------------- | ---------- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `id` | integer or string | yes | The ID or [URL-encoded path of the project](rest/index.md#namespaced-paths) which the authenticated user is a member of |
| `finding_id` | integer or string | yes | The ID of a Vulnerability Finding to create the new Vulnerability from |
The other attributes of a newly created Vulnerability are populated from
its source Vulnerability Finding, or with these default values:
| Attribute | Value |
|--------------|-------------------------------------------------------|
| `author` | The authenticated user |
| `title` | The `name` attribute of a Vulnerability Finding |
| `state` | `opened` |
| `severity` | The `severity` attribute of a Vulnerability Finding |
| `confidence` | The `confidence` attribute of a Vulnerability Finding |
