ISC2 Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) Practice Question

A DevSecOps team has configured their CI pipeline to run SAST and software-composition scans that assign CVSS scores to every finding. Tonight's build finishes with the following results: one vulnerability scored 9.8 (critical), two scored 6.3-6.5 (medium), and several lows. According to commonly accepted break/build criteria based on severity, what should the pipeline do with this build?

  • Allow the build to continue but log a ticket so the critical issue is addressed in the next sprint.

  • Fail the build immediately and block promotion until the critical vulnerability is fixed or mitigated.

  • Pause the pipeline and wait for the security team to manually evaluate every finding before deciding.

  • Promote the build because the total number of vulnerabilities is small and only one is critical.
