CLI Changelog

All changes to the Coana CLI are described on this page. All other Coana changes to Coana services and applications are described on the Coana Services page.

13.19.22 (Dec 21. 2024)

Fixes an issue introduced in 13.19.19 that affects some JavaScript/TypeScript projects.

13.19.21 (Dec 21. 2024)

Fix an issue with modeling dependency trees for sbt projects with transitive project dependencies.

13.19.20 (Dec 20. 2024)

Re-enable dependency installation using npm install and pnpm install due to bug.

13.19.19 (Dec 20. 2024)

Performance and robustness improvement for projects using npm and pnpm package managers. Previously dependencies were installed by running npm install, pnpm install for each workspace. Now we install the dependencies ourselves which makes installation much faster and also makes it possible to run Coana on projects where the installation typically will fail, for instance, if a dependency cannot be resolved.

13.19.18 (Dec 20. 2024)

Robustness improvements for JVM and .NET projects. Coana will no longer throw if building fails for Java and C# projects, but will instead continue with source code analysis.

13.19.17 (Dec 20. 2024)

Fix issue where Coana failed to send report if determining whether a vulnerability is dev or prod fails. This can happen when package.json and lock file are out of sync.

13.19.16 (Dec 19. 2024)

Add support for projects using SBT 0.13.x.

13.19.15 (Dec 18. 2024)

Constraints files referenced in Python requirements.txt files are now handled properly. Previously the contents of such files would be treated as regular requirements. The Coana CLI (still) makes no attempt to automatically detect constraints files.

13.19.14 (Dec 17. 2024)

Performance improvements to the Go reachability analysis and support for more vulnerabilities.

13.19.13 (Dec 17. 2024)

13.19.11 (Dec 11. 2024)

Fix an issue where annotations were not properly modelled in the analysis of JVM projects.

13.19.10 (Dec 10. 2024)

Fix to how Coana detects time regressions when testing new reachability analysis features.

13.19.9 (Dec 10. 2024)

Test JS reachability analysis that return call stacks from application code to vulnerable API, instead of only the location in the application code.

13.19.8 (Dec 9. 2024)

Restructure of analysis for .NET projects to prepare for future release.

13.19.7 (Dec 6. 2024)

Improve the formatting of exceptions thrown by Axios.

13.19.5 (Dec 4. 2024)

Fix an issue where incorrect application paths were used when analysing .NET projects.

13.19.4 (Dec 4. 2024)

Fix a bug affecting the installation of rush projects when using the Coana npm package.

13.19.3 (Dec 3. 2024)

Share dependency trees with Coana after they are computed instead of when submitting report to ensure that they are available for debugging if Coana fails before sending report.

13.19.2 (Dec 3. 2024)

Fix issue where rush projects did not work when using the Coana npm package.

13.19.1 (Dec 2. 2024)

Analyzers for Python, Go, JVM and .NET projects now return call/class stacks from application code to vulnerable APIs, instead of only the location in the application code.

13.19.0 (Dec 2. 2024)

Improved the Coana guardrail scanning with the ability to disregard vulnerabilities, disable blocking and added much more content to the generated PR comments.

13.18.9 (Nov 30. 2024)

Fix issue where previous results could be fetched from the wrong project if two projects has root in the same directory.

Note that some vulnerabilities only reachable through complex dataflow or in indirect dependencies may not be caught when this option is enabled.

13.17.20 (Nov 18. 2024)

Various soundness & precision improvements to the Python reachability analysis. The analysis can now analyze initializers for old-style @attr.s-decorated classes (used in many core libraries, such as aiohttp) through AST-based transformations into native dataclasses.

13.17.19 (Nov 13. 2024)

Add support for multiple .sln files in the same directory for .NET projects. Note, multiple .csproj files in the same directory are not supported.

Do not look for projects in .teamcity folders.

13.17.17 (Nov 11. 2024)

The Python reachability analysis now models the initializer of @dataclass-annotated classes. Data-flow for the sorted built-in, dict.fromkeys and list.{sort,insert} is also modeled.

13.17.16 (Nov 11. 2024)

Fix an issue where timeout metadata was attempted to be read on an undefined object when JVM and .NET analysis fails.

13.17.15 (Nov 7. 2024)

Made dependency resolution lenient when building dependency trees for SBT projects.

13.17.14 (Nov 7. 2024)

13.17.10 (Nov 4. 2024)

Do not send analysis metadata and warnings to Coana when using the option --disable-report-submission.

13.17.9 (Nov 1. 2024)

The Python reachability analysis now models data-flow for attribute accesses on namedtuple instances when the field names of the namedtuple type can be determined statically. Some small performance improvements are also included.

13.17.8 (Nov 1. 2024)

Mark project dependencies as local-workspace when computing dependency trees for .NET and JVM projects.

13.17.7 (Nov 1. 2024)

Improved detection of workspaces for .NET projects.

13.17.6 (Oct 31. 2024)

Support for building dependency trees for legacy .NET framework projects using packages.config.

13.17.5 (Oct 30. 2024)

Add support for applying fixes for .NET projects. Fixes are applied using lock files packages.lock.json and update project files to allow for fixed versions if necessary.

13.17.4 (Oct 30. 2024)

Make our dependency trees more robust in cases where an actual package version cannot be found.

13.17.3 (Oct 29. 2024)

Soundness improvements to the reachability analysis for Python. Data-flow for async generators, async for loops (and comprehensions) and the contextlib.contextmanager decorator is now modeled.

13.17.2 (Oct 24. 2024)

Log output of running dotnet restore for .NET projects.

13.17.1 (Oct 23. 2024)

Change jvm package managers to only use JAVA_HOME fallback mechanism after first error. Clean up logs for maven and gradle package managers by changing to run in batch mode.

13.17.0 (Oct 22. 2024)

Added reachability analysis support for .NET projects.

13.16.28 (Oct 19. 2024)

Fix issue where requiring multiple versions of the same python package in different requirements files crashed the CLI. Now we can compute dependency trees with multiple versions for each python package. The reachability analysis just picks one of the versions to analyze.

13.16.27 (Oct 18. 2024)

Fix issue with pipenv package manager where it crashed if multiple versions for the same package were included in the lock file.

13.16.26 (Oct 17. 2024)

Do not crash CLI when we fail to find the package name of a Python project

13.16.25 (Oct 16. 2024)

Minor fixes/improvements to 13.16.24.

13.16.24 (Oct 15. 2024)

Added extra attempt to retry reachability analysis in different configuration if reachability analysis fails for a project with one vulnerability.

13.16.23 (Oct 15. 2024)

Share what CLI options are used when running Coana and information about the project structure to aid debugging.

13.16.22 (Oct 14. 2024)

Add support for running experimental modes of our analyzers to help evaluate new configurations without introducing regressions.

13.16.21 (Oct 14. 2024)

For yarn projects we now ignore the packageManager field in package.json if it specifies a different version of yarn than what is used to create the lock file.

13.16.20 (Oct 14. 2024)

Better error logging when requests to the Coana backend fail.

13.16.19 (Oct 14. 2024)

Make detected vulnerability occurrences unique when analyzing Java, Kotlin, and Scala projects.

13.16.18 (Oct 10. 2024)

Leverage previous analysis runs in some cases even though new vulnerabilities are found.

13.16.17 (Oct 9. 2024)

Soundness improvements to the reachability analysis for Python. Data-flow for sets, dict.update, the dict(...) constructor and the builtin map function is now modeled. Reads and writes with constant string keys to the globals() dictionary are now modeled (some libraries, such as gevent, contain such writes to work around cython limitations).

13.16.16 (Oct 9. 2024)

Fix issue where Coana did not use fallback configuration when an analysis run failed due to out-of-memory. Also some minor fixes to the content of some warnings.

13.16.15 (Oct 8. 2024)

Fix an issue where Coana could produce analysis errors without trying to fix them with a fallback configuration.

13.16.14 (Oct 8. 2024)

Add support for specifying a provider project when analyzing projects with provided dependencies. The system path to a provider project can be set using option --provider-project and paths to specific workspaces can be set using option --provider-workspaces.

Fix an issue where logging to console from a child process would conflict with the spinner in the main process.

13.16.7 (Oct 3. 2024)

Add openssh-client to docker images. SSH hosts and credentials should be set up prior to running Coana and can be mounted into the docker using -v ~/.ssh:/root/.ssh assuming that the .ssh folder is located under ~.

13.16.6 (Oct 2. 2024)

Fix issues related to leveraging analysis results from previous runs (13.16.0). The first Coana run after this update will not leverage the previous results but subsequent runs will.

13.16.5 (Oct 1. 2024)

When Coana's reachability analysis encounters a Python project with an existing virtual environment, it now checks whether the expected dependencies are already installed. If not, the dependencies will be installed in a new environment before running the analysis. Previously the virtual environment was used as-is, which could lead to incorrect analysis results.

13.16.4 (Oct 1. 2024)

Add support for the pipenv Python package manager.

13.16.3 (Oct 1. 2024)

Fix a regression in 13.16.0 where the timeout for some analysis runs changed.

13.16.2 (Oct 1. 2024)

Fix an issue with logger and spinner when running multiple package managers or reachability analyzers in parallel.

13.16.1 (Oct 1. 2024)

Change default docker image PWD from /coana to /please-point-coana-to-the-forwardslash-project-path. This ensures users see a more helpful error message if they forget to point coana to the /project directory into the docker container.

13.16.0 (Sep 30. 2024)

Generally improve performance of reachability analyzers by leveraging analysis results from last successful run to tune the analysis configuration.

13.15.12 (Sep 28. 2024)

Share statistics on how Coana spents time during execution to aid improving overall performance.

13.15.11 (Sep 27. 2024)

Performance improvement for computing dependency trees for JavaScript/TypeScript projects.

13.15.10 (Sep 26. 2024)

Fix issue where Go analysis failed for projects using the vips package.

13.15.9 (Sep 26. 2024)

The heuristic for assigning module names to Python source files for the reachability analysis has been updated. Previously we would assign a module name based on the relative path of the file from its deepest ancestor directory not containing an __init__.py file. This gave incorrect results for files in implicit namespace packages (PEP 420), i.e. directories not containing an __init__.py file, which are easy to accidentally introduce. The new heuristic looks for the shallowest ancestor directory containing an __init__.py file and assigns a name relative to that directory's parent.

This should fix issues with failed relative imports in implicit namespace packages, module name clashes, and other import-related issues between application modules.

13.15.8 (Sep 26. 2024)

Fix issue where Coana crashed when using option --print-analysis-log-file.

13.15.7 (Sep 26. 2024)

Fix an issue where analysis statistics were not properly sent to Coana.

13.15.6 (Sep 25. 2024)

Add logging for spawned commands that fail before logging is initialized.

13.15.5 (Sep 25. 2024)

Fix issue where computing dependency trees failed for rush projects that use pnpm and have the pnpm-config option useWorkspaces set to false. Finding workspaces for rush projects is now more robust, and we also log more information in case of errors.

13.15.4 (Sep 24. 2024)

Fix an issue when attempting to write undefined package specifier to file.

13.15.3 (Sep 24. 2024)

Clean up log files produced when running in non-debug mode by using a new custom level file. Fix a potential issue where logs were not properly flushed before spawning child processes.

13.15.2 (Sep 24. 2024)

Fix to getting workspaces for rush projects.

13.15.1 (Sep 23. 2024)

Fix an issue wherein the log file was not properly updated if exceptions were thrown. Change log file logging level to debug. Flag --debug now only controls whether debug messages are printed to console. Fix an issue related to the spinner stopping too quickly. Add spinner information to debug logger.

13.15.0 (Sep 23. 2024)

Added support for rush projects that uses pnpm

13.14.11 (Sep 21. 2024)

Include more statistics about time spent by the JVM reachability analyzer. Improved memory handling during computation of workspaces for gradle projects.

13.14.6 (Sep 19. 2024)

Performance improvement for JavaScript/TypeScript reachability analysis: Disable leveraging typescript for marking vulnerabilities as unreachable based on argument types to vulnerable APIs. It rarely provides more precision but is expensive to do.

13.14.5 (Sep 19. 2024)

Generate unique temporary files while running package manager commands.

13.14.4 (Sep 19. 2024)

Include more statistics about time spent by the JavaScript/TypeScript reachability analyzer and share them while running Coana instead of including it in the report that is sent when Coana finishes.

13.14.3 (Sep 18. 2024)

Fix bug in computing dependency tree for NPM that could result in packages missing in the dependency tree.

13.14.2 (Sep 18. 2024)

Fix an issue introduced in 13.14.0 related to the JAVA_HOME fallback mechanism wherein the fallback would be triggered for each new package manager command. Improve reporting of errors thrown while executing package manager commands. Fix a potential issue related to gradle caches not being properly handled while computing workspaces for gradle projects.

13.14.1 (Sep 18. 2024)

Minor improvements to the reachability analysis for JavaScript/TypeScript.

13.14.0 (Sep 17. 2024)

Send message to Coana when a run starts to better monitor runs that fail.

13.13.17 (Sep 13. 2024)

When reachability analyses encounter an error, for instance an out-of-memory error, Coana will apply the same analysis splitting technique that's used for analyses that time out.

13.13.16 (Sep 12. 2024)

Add support for applying fixes to catalog versions in pnpm.

13.13.15 (Sep 11. 2024)

Improvements to the reachability analysis for Python. Data-flow for dictionary comprehensions, copies and async with statements is now modeled. The update also improves precision for functions decorated by user-defined decorators - previously the analysis mixed together all functions decorated by the same decorator.

13.13.14 (Sep 11. 2024)

Added support for applying security fixes in maven, gradle, and sbt projects.

13.13.13 (Sep 9. 2024)

Fix issue for reachability analysis of JavaScript and TypeScript projects where the analysis failed to resolve some modules.

13.13.12 (Sep 7. 2024)

Add CLI option --include-dirs for selecting specific directories that Coana should scan for vulnerabilities.

13.13.11 (Sep 4. 2024)

Fix issue related to computing dependency trees for npm projects using aliases.

13.13.10 (Sep 4. 2024)

Various improvements to the reachability analysis for JavaScript/TypeScript.

13.13.9 (Sep 4. 2024)

For python projects, previously all requirements.txt files in subfolders of a directory with a setup.py or pyproject.toml was considered part of the same project. We now consider them separate projects if they have a nesting level deeper than two. I.e., relative to the setup.py or pyproject.toml, a requirements.txt file in a/b would be considered part of the same project, while requirements.txt files in a/b/c would be considered separate projects.

13.13.8 (Sep 4. 2024)

Fix issue where Coana sometimes printed sending crash report to Coana without Coana actually crashing.

13.13.7 (Sep 3. 2024)

Option --print-analysis-log-file now stores the analysis log file in the root of each workspace

13.12.3 (Aug 30. 2024)

Soundness improvements to the Python reachability analysis. The analysis now models data flow from iterating over dictionaries. Models were also added for the weakref standard library module. The update also contains minor performance improvements.

13.12.2 (Aug 29. 2024)

Improved speed of dependency installation for Python projects.

13.12.1 (Aug 29. 2024)

13.11.5 (Aug 6. 2024)

Fix for Flow type annotations in JavaScript analysis

13.11.4 (Aug 2. 2024)

Fixed dependency version resolution for Go projects. Previously Coana could report vulnerabilities for versions of Go dependencies that were older than the actual version used in the project. Coana can now also filter Go dependencies that are never used in the scanned project, for example, transitive dependencies' test dependencies.

13.11.3 (Aug 2. 2024)

Fixed issue where Coana could treat analysis results as successful even through the analysis failed.

13.11.2 (Aug 1. 2024)

Add support for yarn projects without the packageManager field set in package.json

Added support for SCA without reachability for Go.

13.8.3 (Jul 10. 2024)

If a Python pyproject.toml/setuptools project has a subdirectory with requirements files, the subdirectory is no longer considered a Python project (unless it also contains a pyproject.toml or a setup.py file).

13.8.2 (Jul 9. 2024)

Minor improvements to the precision, soundness and performance of the Python reachability analysis.

13.8.1 (Jul 9. 2024)

Options updates:

  • Add option -c, --concurrency <concurrency> (default: 1 - previous behavior): Run <concurrency> number of reachability runs concurrently.
  • Add option -a, --analysis-timeout <timeoutInSeconds> (default is 60 - the previous behavior): Sets the timeout for each analysis run to <timeoutInSeconds>.
  • Change default value for --memory-limit <memoryInMB> from 4096 to 8192.

12.2.0 (Mar 14. 2024)

Updates the reachability analysis for JavaScript/TypeScript. Introduces various improvements to Coana's package installation commands that are run as part of the reachability analysis if dependencies are not already installed.

12.1.7 (Mar 13. 2024)

Fix an issue where the CLI would sometimes crash if a JavaScript project had engines restrictions, which the Coana CLI Docker image did not meet. Since Coana doesn't actually run the code, engine restrictions are not relevant to the CLI, so we simply ignore them.

12.1.6 (Mar 11. 2024)

General improvements and fixed some issues related to how we automatically detect Maven project configurations.

12.1.5 (Mar 8. 2024)

Fix an issue where we could not distinguish workspaces with the same workspace path in different subprojects.

Improvement to how maven projects are handled - now we only build projects/modules if they have not been built already.

12.1.0 (Mar 1. 2024)

Introduces a new and much faster and more scalable reachability analysis for Java. This update also fixes various bugs in Coana's processing of Java projects.

12.0.1 (Feb 29. 2024)

Fix an issue where the CLI threw an error when it couldn't find a dependency file (package.json, pom.xml etc) in the root of the project.

12.0.0 (Feb 28. 2024)

This update includes a pretty large mostly backward compatible update to the Coana CLI. If your project contains subprojects (see below), you should consider whether they should be excluded using the new --exclude-dirs <folder1> <folder2>.. option.

Support projects that use multiple programming languages and package managers.

For example, Coana can now scan projects that have both a pom.xml and a package.json in the root of the same repository.

Automatically scan subprojects.

The analysis has always supported workspaces (opens in a new tab). However, now the CLI also supports a concept we call subprojects, where a subproject is a project that's not in the root of the repository. For example, imagine a repository where you have a Maven project in the root, but then also a subdirectory that contains a React project with some documentation. The CLI will now automatically scan both the Maven project and the React project in the same run. If you want to exclude a folder from the analysis, you can use the --exclude-dirs <folder1> <folder2>.. option.

Automatically install dependencies prior to running the analysis if needed.

If the CLI detects that the dependencies are not installed, it will now automatically install them before running the analysis. It's still recommended that you manually install dependencies in case you use any kind of specialized caching (like the pnpm GitHub action caching feature (opens in a new tab)) or pass any special flags to the package manager.

11.6.11 (Feb 25. 2024)

Fix an issue where the Coana CLI would crash on npm-based projects that use globs to resolve workspace paths.

11.4.1 (Jan 2. 2024)

  • Fix an issue where the CLI didn't handle pre-release and build identifiers for some pnpm versions.

11.4.0 (Dec 27. 2023)

  • Record the name and version of packages affected by vulnerabilities.
  • Record the dependency type of direct dependencies on chains leading vulnerabilities.

11.3.3 (Dec 18. 2023)

Better debug logging.

11.3.2 (Nov 29. 2023)

Better debug logging.

Upgrade the CLI to use Node version 20, which just entered LTS.

9.1.0 (Oct 26. 2023)

Fix an issue where the offline mode would complain about a missing access paths file when running through Docker.

9.0.0 (Oct 20. 2023)

Breaking changes

This updates contains considerable breaking changes to the CLI. A lot of legacy features have been removed including the ability to generate HTML and markdown reports. It's still possible to generate JSON reports, but now -o . should be used in place -o json -p .. The JSON report format has also changed to make it compatible with DTO that's submitted to the dashboard.

Other changes

The CLI now includes an offline mode where it can run the entire Coana vulnerability scanning without access to the internet. An offline vulnerability database most be provided using the --offline-database argument.

8.6.0 (Oct 19. 2023)

Updates the underlying static analysis.

8.5.0 (Oct 18. 2023)

  • Fix an issue where the CLI execution was not calculated correctly.
  • Coana will now gather more data about the performance of the static analysis. We expect this data will help us better identify bottlenecks and improve the analysis going forward. We want to emphasize that we still don't gather source code or any other sensitive information.

8.2.0 (Sep 24. 2023)

new --write-report-to-file debug option.

8.1.0 (Sep 22. 2023)

Switch to newer more efficient security auditor backend.

8.0.0 (Sep 18. 2023)

Breaking changes

Removes a lot of the non-security-related features since these are no longer a priority for us. Since you are unlikely to use any of these features, you probably won't feel the breaking changes. The CLI is now also slightly more performant.

7.2.0 (Sep 15. 2023)

The static analysis engine has been updated.

7.1.0 (Sep 14. 2023)

The static analysis engine has been updated.

7.0.0

The Coana CLI now integrates with the Coana dashboard using the --api-key option.

6.2.2 (Sep 7. 2023)

Fixed an issue where the Coana APIs could not be reached

6.2.1 (Aug 22. 2023)

Fixed an issue where an error getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND was thrown occasionally. The error is due to a DNS lookup timeout, so we now try to resend the request instead of throwing an error when it occurs.

6.2.0 (Aug 14. 2023)

Add --timeout/-t option for specifying the timeout of API calls to the Coana backend.

6.1.0 (Aug 4. 2023)

Breaking changes

  • --jsonReport has been renamed to --json-report such that the naming better matches the name given to the other report types.
  • --json-report, --markdown-report and --json-report have been deprecated in favor of -o, --output <html,json,md>. For example, replace --json-report with -o json. Use -p, --output-path if you want to write the output to some other folder than the current working directory.

Other changes

  • The backend API has been partially re-implemented. This change should alleviate the problem of long periods of downtime.
  • Various improvements to the precision and speed of the static analysis.
  • Fix an issue where the CLI did not work on Windows due to a bug in the mechanism that initiated the static analysis.

5.0.0 (June 23. 2023)

Breaking changes

This update shouldn't be breaking. Various new fields have been added to the Coana report json object, but it's still backward compatible.

Other changes

Contains lot of minor bug fixes and improvements. Most notably, the layout of the HTML report has improved considerable.

4.0.0 (Apr 27. 2023)

Breaking changes

The JSON output type of the Coana CLI has changed. This change was made to align the JSON output type of the CLI, with the output type used to generate the HTML and markdown reports. The new return type definition is found here (opens in a new tab). Notice, the name is also changed from CoanaCLIOutput to CoanaReport.

Adapting to the new output type

Assuming you were working in a non-workspace project (only a single package.json). If you were previously reading output.unusedPackages, you have to make the following change:

- output.unusedPackages;
+ output.packageSummaries['.'].unusedPackages;

If you were previously reading output.vulnerablePackages, you have to make the following change:

- output.vulnerablePackages;
+ output.vulnerablePackages['.'].vulnerablePackages.map(pkg => pkg.packageName);

If you were previously reading output.packageDetails, you have to make the following change:

- output.packageDetails[somePkgName];
+ output.packageDetails['.'][somePkgName];

For workspace projects (multiple package.json), the change is slightly more complicated. Since Coana now groups the output by workspace name, you have to iterate over the workspace names to extract all of the data. For example:

- output.unusedPackages;
+ import { resolve } from 'path';
+ Object.keys(output.unusedPackages).flatMap(workspace => output.unusedPackages[workspace].map(pkg => resolve(workspace, pkg)));

Other changes

  • The Coana CLI now supports config files in YAML format. You can continue to use the old JSON5 format if you prefer.
  • The security auditor algorithm has changed quite dramatically. The CLI tool should run a lot faster as a consequence.

3.1.0 (Apr 23. 2023)

The coana CLI is now ready to be used with GitHub actions. The GitHub actions are available here https://github.com/coana-tech/coana-action (opens in a new tab) (documentation will follow later).

3.0.0 (Apr 19. 2023)

Breaking changes

The --out <path> or -o <path> option has been replaced with --jsonReport <path>. The <path> passed to --out used to include the file name, e.g., --out ./report.json, but now it should instead point to the folder where a report (coana-report.json) is written. For example --jsonReport . writes coana-report.json to the current directory. This change was made to align the behavior of out/jsonReport with HTML and markdown reports.

Other changes

Use the --silent to remove all logging and debug output. Also disables the spinner.

2.1.0 (Apr 18. 2023)

Coana can now output a HTML and markdown report. Pass either the --html-report . or --markdown-report . option to Coana generate the report in the CWD.

For example:

docker run -v $PWD:/project coana/coana:latest coana --html-report . /project

2.0.0 (Apr 12. 2023)

Breaking changes

  • See the new support for workspaces above. For non-workspaces projects, no breaking changes should be observed.

  • The vulnerability scanning mechanism has been optimized slightly to perform better with the new workspaces mechanism. Previously, if you had a project ./packages/package-a that depends on the local workspace ./packages/package-b and package-b is affected by a vulnerability, Coana would also report that vulnerability in package-a. However, since package-b is now also analyzed separate from package-a, Coana refrains from also reporting its vulnerabilities together with package-a in version 2.0.0 and above. Notice, this change only affects where vulnerabilities are reported (NOT which vulnerabilities that are found).

Other changes

Coana now supports workspaces (mono repositories). If you use workspaces (both npm, Yarn, or pnpm are supported), the Coana CLI can now aggregate the data from each workspace in a single run. For example, if you previously had a workspaces project with the following structure:

package.json
packages/package-a/package.json
packages/package-b/package.json

You would have had do 3 invocations of the CLI to gather data from each workspace:

docker run -v $PWD:/project coana/coana:latest coana ./
docker run -v $PWD:/project coana/coana:latest coana ./packages/packaga-a
docker run -v $PWD:/project coana/coana:latest coana ./packages/packaga-b

A single invocation will now gather data for each workspace

docker run -v $PWD:/project coana/coana:latest coana ./

The output type is different for workspace projects, where the packageDetails is now a 2-layer map from workspace path to package name to details for that package (See the version 2.x.x and 3.x.x types (opens in a new tab) for more details).

1.5.0 (Apr 3. 2023)

Don't show a package as unused if it appears to be used as a plugin in a config file. This feature is a heuristic (not always correct), and can be disabled by setting 'reportUnusedConfigPlugins' to true in coana-config.json.

1.4.0 (Apr 3. 2023)

Support for Yarn classic (Yarn below version 2) projects.

1.3.0 (Apr 1. 2023)

  • Do not report packages as unused if they are peer dependencies of used packages.
  • Use --version to print the version of the Coana CLI.

1.2.1 (Mar 24. 2023)

There is a new minAuditLevel property to be set in coana-config.json. It takes the values 'info', 'low', 'moderate', 'high', 'critical' or 'none' and defaults to 'info'. Packages that are only affected by vulnerabilities below minAuditLevel are not reported in vulnerablePackages.

1.2.0 (Mar 23. 2023)

  • The Docker image now uses alpine Linux instead of Debian (it has reduced its size from about 1GB to around 250MB (370MB to 60MB in the compressed format)).
  • The vulnerability scanner now contains suggested fixes computed by the Coana backend. To actually apply the fixes, you can use the Coana VSCode Extension (opens in a new tab).
  • The 'check for unused packages' feature now matches bins provided by a package with the scripts in the package.json (before it would only match on package names). This change means that if you depend on TypeScript, and use the TypeScript bin 'tsc' in one of your scripts, then TypeScript will not be flagged as unused.

1.1.1 (Feb 27. 2023)

Don't report a package as unused if:

  • It's a developer dependency
  • It's used in the script section of the package.json
  • It's a @types package
