About the issueโ€‹

Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) are structured addresses that point to locations and assets on the internet. URLs allow software developers to build complex applications that exchange data with servers that can be hosted in multiple geographical regions. URLs can commonly be found embedded in documentation, configuration files, source code and compiled binaries. One or more URLs found in the software package were explicitly marked as restricted.

How to resolve the issueโ€‹

  • Review the audit section to better understand the organization security policy.
  • You should delay the software release until the investigation is completed, or until the issue is risk accepted.
  • Consider removing all references to flagged network locations.
