    • Severity
    • Category
    • CWE

Confirmation

After reviewing the fields, select Create Linear Ticket to submit.During this step:
  • Krait sends the issue to the connected Linear workspace
  • The ticket is created under the configured Team and Project
  • A confirmation message appears stating:
    Linear ticket created successfully.
The Linear issue is now linked to the vulnerability, allowing teams to move seamlessly from discovery to remediation.

After Ticket Creation

Once a Linear ticket is created, Krait automatically links it back to the originating vulnerability and updates the interface to reflect the new association.

Where You Can See the Ticket

The ticket now appears under the Tickets tab within the vulnerability details page.

  • Each linked ticket displays:
    • Issue title (as created in Linear)
    • Project name
    • Assigned engineer
    • Current Linear status (e.g., Backlog, In Progress, Done)
    • Priority (when available)
These fields sync from Linear so your team always sees real-time information inside Krait.

Ticket Visibility Across Krait

The newly created Linear issue is also listed in the Tickets section of Krait’s main navigation, where you can filter and review all tickets across resources.

Linked Metadata Displayed on the Vulnerability

On the vulnerability details page, under the “Tickets” tab, Krait shows:
  • A direct link to the Linear ticket
  • The associated Linear issue key (e.g., KRA-123)
  • Ticket status and assignee
  • Any other synced metadata supported by Linear (project, priority, workflow state)

How This Helps Your Team

This unified view enables:
  • Faster handoff from security to engineering
  • Clear traceability from vulnerability → ticket → remediation
  • Reduced context switching across tools
  • Transparent ownership and accountability
Krait ensures every ticket remains fully synchronized with Linear so that your team can track remediation progress without leaving the platform.
