description

Remediate security vulnerabilities by finding safe upgrade paths. Use when the user says "fix this vulnerability", "how do I fix CVE-XXXX", "remediate this finding", "patch this vuln", "endor fix", or wants step-by-step fix instructions for a specific CVE, finding, or vulnerable package. Can apply fixes automatically. Do NOT use for general scanning (/endor-scan) or just viewing vulnerability info (/endor-explain).

Endor Labs Remediation Guide

Help users fix security vulnerabilities with safe upgrade paths and step-by-step remediation.

Input Parsing

The user may provide finding text (e.g., from a ticket) or at least one of:

1. CVE ID — e.g., CVE-2021-23337
2. Package name — e.g., lodash
3. Finding UUID

Workflow

Step 1: Identify the Finding

If Finding UUID provided: Use get_resource MCP tool with resource_type: Finding and the UUID. If found, go to Step 2.

If CVE ID or package name provided: Use /endor-api skill to query Finding resource with appropriate filter. If found, go to Step 2.

If package name provided but no finding found: Use /endor-check skill instead.

If no finding found: Inform user. Indicate whether they are already at a recommended version.

Step 2: Find Upgrade Recommendation

Use /endor-upgrade-impact skill for pre-computed safe upgrade recommendations. If a recommendation exists, go to Step 3. If unavailable or no recommendation, use /endor-check skill instead.

Step 3: Present Remediation

## Remediation: {CVE-ID}

### Vulnerability

| Field | Value |
|-------|-------|
| CVE | {cve_id} |
| Severity | {severity} |
| Package | {package}@{current_version} |
| Description | {description} |
| Reachable | {yes/no — only known if finding found in Step 1} |

### Fix

**Recommended upgrade:** {package}@{current} -> {package}@{safe_version}
**Upgrade type:** {Patch/Minor/Major}

For install commands, read references/install-commands.md.

### Additional Fixes Needed

{If multiple CVEs affect this package, list them all and whether the recommended version fixes them}

Step 4: Offer to Apply Fix

Ask the user if they want you to:

1. Update the dependency (or parent dependency for transitive vulnerabilities) in the manifest file
2. Run the package manager install command

For data source policy, read references/data-sources.md.

For CLI field paths and parsing gotchas, read references/cli-parsing.md.

Error Handling

Error	Action
No fix available	Suggest mitigation strategies (WAF rules, input validation, etc.)
Package not found	Check package name and ecosystem
Auth error	Suggest /endor-setup
