### description

The VEX Generation Toolset is a complete set of tools to analyze the reachability of vulnerabilities in Java application and generation of VEX statements:

[**Root cause service**](https://github.com/vex-generation-toolset/root-cause-service): Enriches the vulnerability record with the vulnerable method data,
[**Call graph generator**](https://github.com/vex-generation-toolset/java-callgraph): Generates calls graphs for a Maven artifact,
[**VEX Statement Generator**](https://github.com/vex-generation-toolset/vex-generation-service): Generates the VEX statements.
