Scans Affected
Polaris SCA scans
On-prem and hosted bridge CLI-initiated SCA scans

Manifestation
Affected customers will experience scan failures with the following messages logged:

Running Component Locator v2.4.2
Detect run failed.
Index 1 out of bounds for length 1
Generating Component Location Analysis File for All Components: FAILURE
Overall Status: FAILURE_UNKNOWN_ERROR

Workaround
Polaris Source Upload Scans: None
Polaris SCM Scans: None
Polaris, on-prem, or hosted bridge CLI Scans:
Disabling Component Location Analysis (CLA) by modifying the bridge CLI command will allow scans to complete:

./bridge-cli.exe --stage polaris --input input.json --diagnostics detect.args='--detect.component.location.analysis.enabled=false'

Limitations introduced by disabling CLA are outlined in the following Community article:

Current Status
A fix has been developed, has completed QA and end-to-end testing, and is now being prepared for deployment. ETA for completion of fix deployment is Friday, Sept. 4th, 2026.
