# Vulnerabilities API **(ULTIMATE)**
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/10242) in [GitLab Ultimate](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 12.6.
NOTE:
The former Vulnerabilities API was renamed to Vulnerability Findings API
and its documentation was moved to [a different location](vulnerability_findings.md).
This document now describes the new Vulnerabilities API that provides access to
[Vulnerabilities](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/634).
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. Please use the
[GraphQL API](graphql/reference/index.md#queryvulnerabilities)
instead.
Every API call to vulnerabilities must be [authenticated](index.md#authentication).
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.
## Single vulnerability
Gets a single vulnerability
```plaintext
GET /vulnerabilities/:id
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
| --------- | ---- | -------- | ----------- |
| `id` | integer or string | yes | The ID of a Vulnerability to get |
```shell
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/vulnerabilities/1"
```
Example response:
```json
{
"id": 1,
"title": "Predictable pseudorandom number generator",
"description": null,
"state": "opened",
"severity": "medium",
"confidence": "medium",
"report_type": "sast",
"project": {
"id": 32,
"name": "security-reports",

"last_edited_at": null,
"closed_at": null
}
```
## Confirm vulnerability
Confirms a given vulnerability. Returns status code `304` if the vulnerability is already confirmed.
If an authenticated user does not have permission to
[confirm vulnerabilities](../user/permissions.md#project-members-permissions),
this request results in a `403` status code.
```plaintext
POST /vulnerabilities/:id/confirm
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
| --------- | ---- | -------- | ----------- |
| `id` | integer or string | yes | The ID of a vulnerability to confirm |
```shell
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/vulnerabilities/5/confirm"
```
Example response:
```json
{
"id": 2,
"title": "Predictable pseudorandom number generator",
"description": null,
"state": "confirmed",
"severity": "medium",
"confidence": "medium",
"report_type": "sast",
"project": {
"id": 32,
"name": "security-reports",
"full_path": "/gitlab-examples/security/security-reports",
"full_name": "gitlab-examples / security / security-reports"
},
"author_id": 1,
"updated_by_id": null,
"last_edited_by_id": null,
"closed_by_id": null,

"updated_at": "2019-10-13T15:09:40.382Z",
"last_edited_at": null,
"closed_at": null
}
```
## Resolve vulnerability
Resolves a given vulnerability. Returns status code `304` if the vulnerability is already resolved.
If an authenticated user does not have permission to
[resolve vulnerabilities](../user/permissions.md#project-members-permissions),
this request results in a `403` status code.
```plaintext
POST /vulnerabilities/:id/resolve
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
| --------- | ---- | -------- | ----------- |
| `id` | integer or string | yes | The ID of a Vulnerability to resolve |
```shell
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/vulnerabilities/5/resolve"
```
Example response:
```json
{
"id": 2,
"title": "Predictable pseudorandom number generator",
"description": null,
"state": "resolved",
"severity": "medium",
"confidence": "medium",
