git-vuln-finder

Finding potential software vulnerabilities from git commit messages. The output format is a JSON with the associated commit which could contain a fix regarding a software vulnerability. The search is based on a set of regular expressions against the commit messages only.

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • GitPython

Usage

usage: finder.py [-h] [-v] [-r R] [-o O] [-s S] [-p P]

Finding potential software vulnerabilities from git commit messages.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help  show this help message and exit
  -v          increase output verbosity
  -r R        git repository to analyse
  -o O        Output format: [json]
  -s S        State of the commit found
  -p P        Matching pattern to use: [vulnpatterns, cryptopatterns,
              cpatterns]

Patterns

git-vuln-finder comes with 3 default patterns which can be selected to find the potential vulnerabilities described in the commit messages such as:

  • vulnpatterns is a generic vulnerability pattern especially targeting web application and generic security commit message. Based on an academic paper.
  • cryptopatterns is a vulnerability pattern for cryptographic errors mentioned in commit messages.
  • cpatterns is a set of standard vulnerability patterns see for C/C++-like languages.
