Integrate JFrog Xray with Vulnetix. Use the JFrog CLI jf audit command to scan your project dependencies and export results as JSON or SARIF for upload to Vulnetix.
Run JFrog Xray in CI
Scan on every push and upload the report as a workflow artifact:
- name: Install JFrog CLI
run: curl -fL https://install-cli.jfrog.io | sh
- name: Configure JFrog CLI
env:
JFROG_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.JFROG_TOKEN }}
JFROG_URL: ${{ secrets.JFROG_URL }}
run: jf config add ci --url "$JFROG_URL" --access-token "$JFROG_TOKEN" --interactive=false
- name: Run Xray audit
run: jf audit --format json > xray-audit.json
- name: Upload to Vulnetix
run: vulnetix upload --file xray-audit.json
How Vulnetix compares: better together
Vulnetix does not replace JFrog Xray. Keep running it. Vulnetix sits on top of JFrog Xray (and every other scanner you already own) turning disconnected tool outputs into one prioritised, fixable queue.
JFrog Xray is strongest at its core category and also carries features in Container & Image Scanning, SAST, Secret Scanning, IaC & Cloud Configuration, License Compliance, SBOM Generation, just as Vulnetix spans categories.
| Capability | Vulnetix | JFrog Xray |
|---|---|---|
| Security coverage | ||
| SAST (static code analysis) | ✓ Built-in rules + Semgrep augmentation | ~ Advanced Security SAST does cross-file semantic first-party code analysis |
| SCA / dependencies | ✓ 40+ ecosystems, transitive graph | ✓ Core: continuous CVE/license scanning of dependencies and artefacts |
| DAST (dynamic testing) | ~ Ingests DAST results; no native dynamic engine | ✗ |
| Container & image | ✓ Image CVEs, base image, Dockerfile | ✓ Container image scanning with contextual (exploitability) analysis |
| IaC / misconfiguration | ✓ Terraform, k8s, CloudFormation | ~ IaC (Terraform) misconfig scanning for AWS/Azure/GCP |
| Secret scanning | ✓ 1,000+ rules, source + binary + git history | ~ Secrets detection for keys/tokens/passwords in code and artefacts |
| Cloud / CSPM | ✓ Cloud-posture findings, compliance tab | ✗ |
| Mobile (MAST) | ~ Ingests mobile scanner output; no native mobile engine | ✗ |
| License compliance | ✓ SPDX, copyleft/AGPL/SSPL policy | ✓ License violation detection and policy |
| SBOM generation | ✓ CycloneDX 1.7 + SPDX 2.3, cosign-signable | ~ SBOM export from scanned artefacts |
| Malware / supply-chain | ✓ De-duplicated corpus + install-time firewall (25+ registries) | ~ Curation/Firewall blocks malicious/risky packages at the proxy |
| Network / infra vuln | ~ Ingests network scanner output; no native network scanner | ✗ |
| Fuzzing | ✗ Ingests fuzzing crashes; no native fuzzer | ✗ |
| Pentest / bug bounty | ✗ Ingests pentest/bug-bounty findings; not a testing service | ✗ |
| The Vulnetix orchestration layer | ||
| Cross-scanner dedup & one queue (ASPM) | ✓ Correlates every scanner into one prioritised queue with ownership routing | ✗ |
| Exploit-intel prioritisation | ✓ EPSS, CISA KEV, Coalition ESS, CWSS, Vulnetix LEV | ~ Contextual analysis prioritises applicable CVEs; JFrog exploit maturity data |
| Reachability analysis | ✓ Tree-sitter + CVEAffected; direct/transitive/semantic | ~ Reachability analysis with evidence justifies flagged CVEs |
| Versioned VEX + audit trail | ✓ Immutable OpenVEX/CycloneDX, cosign-signable | ~ Applicability results align with VEX not_affected justifications |
| Safe Harbour autofix | ✓ Resolves + applies the nearest safe version | ~ Remediation guidance and version recommendations |
| End-of-life policy | ✓ Flags/blocks past-EOL runtimes & packages | ✗ |
| SSVC / risk-based policy | ✓ SSVC v2 + CISA/FedRAMP/Essential-8 presets | ✗ |

What JFrog Xray does well
- Universal artefact/binary scanning deeply integrated with Artifactory, using a premium vulnerability DB (Risk Based Security plus public/private sources) across every package type it hosts
- JFrog Advanced Security adds real breadth: SAST cross-file semantic analysis of first-party code, secrets detection, IaC (Terraform/AWS/Azure/GCP), and services/misconfiguration scanning
- Contextual (applicability) analysis with reachability evidence determines whether a CVE is actually exploitable in your code, cutting false positives
- Curation/Repository Firewall blocks risky or malicious packages at the proxy, plus continuous artefact scanning and SBOM export
Where Vulnetix adds to it: JFrog Xray is broad but Artifactory-centric: its power is greatest for artefacts flowing through the JFrog Platform. Vulnetix is repo- and scanner-agnostic and layers on top: it ingests Xray's SCA, SAST, secrets, IaC and container findings and dedupes them with results from other scanners (Semgrep, Grype, cloud/CSPM, ingested DAST) into one prioritised queue no single vendor owns. Vulnetix adds cloud/CSPM natively, a broader exploit-intel stack (EPSS, KEV, Coalition ESS, CWSS, Vulnetix LEV), immutable versioned VEX with audit, EOL and SSVC policy, and Safe Harbour autofix across the whole estate rather than only JFrog-hosted artefacts.
No migration, no rip-and-replace. JFrog Xray keeps doing what it does best; Vulnetix adds the orchestration, exploit-intelligence prioritisation and remediation layer built for the way AppSec works today.
Centralise JFrog Xray results in Vulnetix
Upload JFrog Xray JSON, SARIF, CycloneDX, SPDX output to the Vulnetix platform to deduplicate findings, prioritise them with EPSS, CISA KEV and Coalition ESS exploit intelligence, and track remediation across every scanner in a single queue.
