Create Jira issues from Vulnerabilities
### Release Notes Many customers use Jira as their single source of truth for tracking issues and engineering work. When using GitLab for SCM and CI/CD, they can take advantage of our existing integration to pass information from MRs and commits into existing Jira issues. However, there is currently no way to pass information about vulnerabilities detected by security scanners into Jira. This leaves users who rely on Jira to track work no choice but to manually copy vulnerability information into new Jira issues. To address this, we're introducing a new ability to create Jira issues directly from a vulnerability's details. You will see this as a new option in your existing Jira integration settings. Simply enable the new option and select the desired Jira issue type. Available issue types are pulled automatically based on the currently configured Jira target project. Once enabled, all places in your project where you can create GitLab issues from a vulnerability will instead directly create a Jira issue of the configured type. #### Documentation Update https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/integrations/jira.html to cover: * New Jira issue creation configuration section (show screenshots) * Creating a Jira issue from a vulnerability object * Creating a Jira issue from a finding * Limitations and caveats: * vulnerability list will not show related Jira issues for vulnerabilities * users must sign in to Jira to create new Jira issues from vulnerabilities * removing the GitLab vulnerability link from the Jira issue Description will remove the link on the GitLab side * any functional differences when using Jira Enterprise (self-managed) versus Jira Cloud
