Security teams have historically struggled to keep up with triage and remediation when development was happening at human speed. Today, that challenge is exacerbated by developers writing and shipping code at machine speed with AI.At the same time, AI is helping attackers find and exploit vulnerabilities faster in production. Verizon's 2026 Data Breach Investigations Report found vulnerability exploitation overtook credential abuse as the top breach entry point. Vulnerability exploitation accounts for 31% of breaches versus just 13% in previous years, and only 26% of known exploited vulnerabilities were remediated this year, down from 38%. That means more breaches are starting with a vulnerability that was already sitting in production, unpatched.In GitLab 19.3, teams can now run Static Application Security Testing (SAST) False Positive Detection and Agentic SAST Vulnerability Resolution, in bulk, on their existing vulnerability backlog.Dismiss false positives and remediate vulnerabilities in bulkMost teams have a known vulnerabilities backlog already running in production, far more than any team has time to open and triage one at a time. That used to be a workload problem. Now it's a timing problem too: The same AI accelerating development is accelerating exploitation, which means findings that sit in the backlog longer carry more risk than they used to.GitLab addresses this with two layers of automated triage and remediation. The first covers active vulnerabilities in production. With GitLab 19.3, teams can bulk-select multiple vulnerabilities to run agentic flows, SAST …
