Change default Issue Detail writeup for parent issue

Superman | Last updated: Jan 09, 2023 04:42PM UTC

Hi, Does IscanIssue or any other class/method expose functionality to change the default issueDetail writeup for parent findings (findings with multiple instances). Use case: My extension searches for specific strings in response page of all paths. It then reports all matches in a finding. When multiple instances are reported, the parent issue only lists the various paths where issue was triggered. I want to be able to add list of unique strings found across all paths to parent issueDetail.

Hi You could keep track of your list of unique strings and add that information to the issue detail whenever an issue is raised. You could then also change your issue consolidation logic to return the new issue with the up-to-date detail rather than the old issue with out-of-date information.

Hi, I don't understand when you say "add that information to the issue detail whenever an issue is raised". I would like to understand how I can differentiate the display of the issueDetail between parent and children, so I was wondering how to specify in the GetIssueDetail method when and how to return the list with for example the names of all the evidences, and when instead the detail of the evidence itself.
