PrestaShop’s New HCL AppScan in Module Validation | Need Advice on Unresolved Security Issues

[Mehdi Bourechka]

Hello All,

I’ve been testing the new PrestaShop module validation system and noticed they’ve recently added an HCL AppScan step.
It automatically scans your ZIP file, runs it through the latest security standards, and generates a detailed report.

They’ve clearly resolved a lot of security issues across the ecosystem, which is great to see.
However, in my own case, I still have a few flagged issues that I haven’t been able to solve yet.

I develop modules regularly, but I’m not highly advanced in security, so if anyone here has experience with the new scanning process or knows best practices to fix these remaining warnings, I’d really appreciate your input.

Thanks in advance
