Ignore

Usage

snyk ignore --id=<ISSUE_ID> [--expiry=] [--reason=] [--policy-path=<PATH_TO_POLICY_FILE>] [--path=<PATH_TO_RESOURCE>] [OPTIONS]

OR

snyk ignore [--expiry=] [--reason=] [--policy-path=<PATH_TO_POLICY_FILE>] [--file-path=<PATH_TO_RESOURCE>] [OPTIONS]

Description

The snyk ignore command modifies the .snyk policy file to ignore a stated issue according to its snyk ID for all occurrences, its expiry date, a reason, or according to paths in the filesystem.

This updates your local .snyk file to contain a block similar to the following:

ignore:
  '<ISSUE_ID>':
    - '*':
        reason: <REASON>
        expires: <EXPIRY>

When you use the --path option the block is similar to this:

ignore:
  '<ISSUE_ID>':
    - '<PATH_TO_RESOURCE>':
        reason: <REASON>
        expires: <EXPIRY>

When you use the --file-path option the block is similar to this:

exclude:
  '<GROUP>':
    - <FILE MATCHING-PATTERN>
    - <FILE MATCHING-PATTERN>:
      reason: <REASON>
      expires: <EXPIRY>
      created: <CREATION TIME>

Note: The --file-path [exclude] option is available only for Snyk Code (SAST) tests or Open Source --unmanaged tests and will not work for other test types.

Ignoring issues or vulnerabilities using the .snyk file is not supported for Snyk Code

Debug

Use the -d option to output the debug logs.

Options

--id=<ISSUE_ID>

Snyk ID for the issue to ignore, omitted if used with --file-path; required by other use cases.

--expiry=<EXPIRY>

Expiry date in YYYY-MM-DD format.

Supported formats:

ISO 8601

RFC 2822

Default: 30 days or none if used with --file-path

--reason=<REASON>

Human-readable <REASON> to ignore this issue.

Default: none

Note: Not supported for Snyk Code.

--policy-path=<PATH_TO_POLICY_FILE>

Path to a .snyk policy file to pass manually.

Default: none

--path=<PATH_TO_RESOURCE>

Path to resource inside the depgraph for which to ignore the issue.

Use to narrow the scope of the ignore rule. When no resource path is specified, all resources are ignored.

You can specify component versions in the path using https://github.com/npm/node-semver#versions

If used, follows the --policy-path option.

Default: all

--file-path=<PATH_TO_RESOURCE>

Filesystem for which to ignore the issue. Used by snyk code and snyk test --unmanaged

Default: none

--file-path-group=[global|code|iac-drift]

Grouping used in combination with --file-path, otherwise omitted.

Default: global

Examples for snyk ignore command

Ignore a specific vulnerability

$ snyk ignore --id='npm:qs:20170213' --expiry='2021-01-10' --reason='Module not affected by this vulnerability'

Ignore a specific vulnerability with a resource path specified

$ snyk ignore --id='SNYK-JS-PATHPARSE-1077067' --expiry='2021-01-10' --path='nyc@11.9.0 > istanbul-lib-report@1.1.3 > path-parse@1.0.5' --reason='Module not affected by this vulnerability'$ snyk ignore --id='SNYK-JS-PATHPARSE-1077067' --expiry='2021-01-10' --path='nyc@11.9.0

Ignore a specific vulnerability with a resource path specified (Windows)

In this example, snyk iac test on Windows returned a Path containing single quotes and a File specification containing back slashes:

Rule: https://security.snyk.io/rules/cloud/SNYK-CC-TF-118 Path: resource > aws_iam_role[OrganizationAccountAccessRole] > assume_role_policy['Statement'][0] File: terraform\environment\com\iam.tf

The corresponding snyk ignore command would be:

snyk ignore --id=SNYK-CC-TF-118 --path="terraform\environment\com\iam.tf > resource > aws_iam_role[OrganizationAccountAccessRole] > assume_role_policy['Statement'][0]"

Ignore a specific vulnerability with a resource path specified (Linux, Mac OS)

In this example, snyk iac test on Linux or Mac OS returned a Path containing single quotes and a File specification containing forward slashes:

Rule: https://security.snyk.io/rules/cloud/SNYK-CC-TF-118 Path: resource > aws_iam_role[OrganizationAccountAccessRole] > assume_role_policy['Statement'][0] File: terraform/environment/com/iam.tf

The corresponding snyk ignore command would be:

snyk ignore --id=SNYK-CC-TF-118 --path="terraform/environment/com/iam.tf > resource > aws_iam_role[OrganizationAccountAccessRole] > assume_role_policy['Statement'][0]"

Ignore a specific vulnerability for 30 days

$ snyk ignore --id=npm:tough-cookie:20160722

Ignore a specific file until 2031-01-20

Ignore a specific file, used by snyk test --unmanaged until 2031-01-20, with a description as a reference for the future.

$ snyk ignore --file-path='./deps/curl-7.58.0/src/tool_msgs.c' --expiry='2031-01-20' --reason='patched file'

Ignore files or folders using glob expression - Snyk Code and unmanaged only

To ignore files matching a glob expression, add them to a specific group.

This applies to Snyk Code; it does not apply to Snyk Open Source except unmanaged, to Container, or to IaC.

$ snyk ignore --file-path='./**/vendor/**/*.cpp' --file-path-group='global'
