⚠️ Note on feature completeness ⚠️

This pull request aligns with the current contribution guidelines by enhancing the OSV parser. The changes introduce mitigation details for vulnerabilities.


Description

This pull request enhances the OSC Scan parser by adding support for mitigation information, specifically the fixed versions of affected packages.

Key Changes:

  1. Extraction of Fixed Versions:

    • Added logic to parse the ranges field within the affected section of each vulnerability.
    • Extracted the fixed version from the events list when available and formatted it as:
      Upgrade to version: <fixed_version>.
  2. Integration of Mitigation:

    • Introduced a new mitigation field in findings to provide actionable guidance for resolving vulnerabilities.
  3. Enhanced Usability:

    • Improved the output of the parser to make it more informative and aligned with best practices in vulnerability management.
  4. Testing Support:

    • Standalone Python script to test the parser. The script reads a sample JSON file, executes the parser, and outputs the findings, including the mitigation details, for validation.

Test Results

Testing was conducted using the provided sample JSON file (test.json). The parser correctly identifies findings and includes mitigation details in its output.

Example Output:

  • Title: CVE-2024-50252_linux
  • Severity: Medium
  • Mitigation: Upgrade to version: 6.1.119-1
  • Description: Detailed vulnerability information.
  • References: Links to relevant advisories and fixes.

Additionally, I verified that:

  • Findings without a fixed version omit the mitigation field.
  • The parser handles malformed JSON gracefully by returning an empty findings list.

Unit tests are planned to extend dojo/unittests for comprehensive coverage of these changes.


Documentation

The documentation has been updated to reflect this new feature:

  • Added a note about the mitigation field in the parser's description.
  • Clarified that mitigation information will appear when available in the input JSON.

Checklist

  • Changes submitted against the dev branch.
  • PR named meaningfully for release notes.
  • Code is flake8 and Python 3.11 compliant.
  • Tests added to validate the parser's new functionality.
  • Proper label applied: Import Scans.

Labels

Import Scans, enhancement


Extra Information

This pull request enhances the usability of the OSV parser, making it more actionable by including mitigation details. It also aligns with existing parsers, such as WPScan, which already support fixed versions, ensuring consistency across DefectDojo.

DryRun Security Summary

The pull request includes various updates to the DefectDojo application, focusing on dependency management, documentation improvements, and feature enhancements, with no major security concerns identified.

Expand for full summary

Summary:

The code changes in this pull request cover a wide range of updates, including dependency version updates, documentation improvements, and feature enhancements across the DefectDojo application. From an application security perspective, the changes do not introduce any major security concerns, but there are a few areas that warrant further review and consideration:

  1. Dependency Management: The update to the package.json file for the defectdojo project should be reviewed to ensure that all dependencies are using the latest stable versions, and that any known security vulnerabilities have been addressed.

  2. Documentation Updates: The various documentation changes, such as updating the API documentation, Helm chart release workflow, and user guides, are generally positive improvements that help enhance the security and usability of the application. However, it's important to ensure that any user-supplied data in the documentation is properly sanitized and validated to prevent potential security issues like cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

  3. API and Integration Security: The changes related to the "API Connectors" and "Generic Findings Import" features highlight the need to ensure the proper implementation of secure authentication, authorization, and input validation mechanisms for these integration points. This is crucial to prevent potential security vulnerabilities from being introduced through these external connections.

  4. Hardcoded Values and Configurations: While not a major concern, some of the changes mention the use of hardcoded values, such as constants and default parameter values. It's generally recommended to make these values configurable or retrieve them from more dynamic sources to improve maintainability and reduce the risk of unintended consequences.

Overall, the changes in this pull request appear to be focused on improving the functionality, usability, and documentation of the DefectDojo application. From an application security perspective, the changes do not raise any immediate red flags, but it's important to continue monitoring the development and deployment of these features to ensure that the application's security posture is maintained.
