Checkmarx SCA Release Notes July 2026

Notice

These release notes relate to the SCA standalone product. Users who consume SCA through Checkmarx One should refer to the Checkmarx One release notes to see which SCA features have been released in Checkmarx One.

SCA Updates

Added Support for PNPM Lockfile Resolution

SCA now supports dependency resolution using pnpm-lock.yaml, extending lockfile-based analysis to projects managed with PNPM.

When a pnpm-lock.yaml file is detected in a project, it is used as the authoritative source for resolving both direct and transitive dependencies, reflecting the exact versions installed by PNPM. For projects without a pnpm-lock.yaml, existing NPM-based resolution behavior is unchanged. This ensures that PNPM-managed projects receive accurate vulnerability and license risk analysis without requiring any changes to the project configuration.
