Nosey Parker v0.13.0

[bradlarsen]

A prebuilt multiplatform Docker image for this release is available for x86_64 and ARM64 architectures:

docker pull ghcr.io/praetorian-inc/noseyparker:v0.13.0

Changes

• Nosey Parker now statically links against a bundled version of Vectorscan for regular expression matching instead of Hyperscan (#5). This makes building from source simpler, particularly for ARM-based platforms. This also simplifies distribution, as a precompiled noseyparker binary now has no runtime library dependencies on non-default libraries.

• Several existing rules were modified to reduce false positives and false negatives:

  • Generic API Key
  • Telegram Bot Token

Additions:

• New rules have been added:

  • Generic Username and Password (quoted)
  • Generic Username and Password (unquoted)
  • Generic Password (double quoted)
  • Generic Password (single quoted)
  • Grafana API Token
  • Grafana Cloud API Token
  • Grafana Service Account Token
  • Postman API Key

• References have been added for several rules:

  • Twilio API Key
  • Dynatrace Token

Fixes

• The Docker image now has the git binary installed. Previously this was missing, causing the scan command to fail when the --git-url, --github-user, or --github-organization input specifiers were used (#38).
