See detailed reports in MegaLinter artifacts
You could have the same capabilities but better runtime performances if you use a MegaLinter flavor:
- oxsecurity/megalinter/flavors/salesforce@v10.0.0 (57 linters)
- oxsecurity/megalinter/flavors/javascript@v10.0.0 (62 linters)
Your project could benefit from a custom flavor, which would allow you to run only the linters you need, and thus improve runtime performances. (Skip this info by defining FLAVOR_SUGGESTIONS: false)
- Documentation: Custom Flavors

🚀 Hey, I have created a Pull Request
Description of changes
This pull request introduces a comprehensive noise-reduction strategy for vulnerability scanning, aiming to ensure that only actionable and relevant findings are surfaced to maintainers. The changes filter out vulnerabilities with no available fixes and kernel-package CVEs that cannot be exploited in containers, and document this approach for transparency and future review. Both Trivy scanners (in CI and MegaLinter) are updated to apply these filters consistently.
